Jack-in-the-Box,

No one but yourself is talking about the "high school mentality". What IS being discussed here is music-making using dynamics (loud, soft, whatever) that are appropriate to a given piece of music. I agree with your implication that good players should have a command of ALL dynamic levels. But, really good players use that command of dynamics to further the cause of the music, not their own ego-driven desires to attract attention to themselves by playing at "ball busting" or "lacquer cracking" volume levels.
