> Very few people have a solid grasp of musical theory.

This is just like saying that very few people in the world have a solid grasp of computer programming... Do you know that there are hundreds of university departments in the world where the only thing people do is, wait for it... having a solid grasp of musical theory!?

How is that not 'very few people' in a sample that includes the population of the Earth?

Not everyone if the world is trying to create a computer model of music. The minimum a person with this interest can do is to contact a specialist in music theory (of whom there are thousands as I mentioned).
