[1] Now, could there be more 'Beethovens' in the aspect of persistence in composing music despite disability or [heavy] illness? Perhaps a surviving [and more famous] Schubert, Chopin, Schumann or Smetana might do the trick, doesn't it?
[2] What if there was a 'no curse of the ninth [or later] symphony'? [Of course any scenario with a longer-lived, not deaf or symphony focused Beethoven would do the trick.]
[3] Has anybody considered the possibility of this composer living longer without deafness and is this significant in any aspect?
[4] Any scenario where said composer is influenced more by other contemporaries?
[5] How many works could he logically complete and how many varieties of music could he compose? Without deafness, how much longer could he live and how would his music be related to and affected by this scenario?
