If the musician can concentrate on the fingers rather than what is heard, 
fine (but that needs to be a good player).

However I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about a player trying to 
fit in a group, hopefully with one central sound output or at least sound 
outputs that are close to each other. The player has to keep always the 
same advance; he/she heard the previous notes from other player and needs 
to play something that will fit with what will be heard from those people 
at the time in the future when it'll be played.
