So why wouldn't you just copy what was done with most cutting lathes?  Seems to me that stylus drag would be roughly the same (geometrically) for both cutting  and playback.  Thus, the cutting lathe slows down in response to large orchestral passages.  Would you not want the same effect during playback, thus cancelling out a velocity error?  I would think a cutting lathe makes for perhaps the best playback.
