When I started coming to Noisebridge I was told that the convention is
for people to block only if they disagree with something so much, that
if that decision was in fact enacted they would stop wanting to be
members of Noisebridge. (That a piano, in your opinion), is a good use
of the space, it doesn't mean it's a _bad_ use of the space.)

Do you, in fact, think that an acoustic piano is so bad, that if we
were to acquire one, you'd stop being a member?

Corollary (1): nobody in third-world countries has good ideas.

Corollary (2): no group of "starving artists" can have good ideas.

Note that by community you're referring to the sub-community of people
interested in music (and not the Noisebridge community at large).
