Well, a good score is an indication of how something should be played,
not every single little detail. It leaves such important components up
to the individual performer. I'm really disappointed by a number of
people who've learned to play by listening to others' performances; they
seem to have difficulty coming up with their own sound, or show a strong
propensity for sounding just like the performer they "learned" from.
Most commercial pop music seems to think that's the way it's supposed to
be, though.
