Okay, you are a student and you think the aims of a student should be to play "what's written 90% of the time". Thus this is the way you think you should play.
I am a student and I (and I believe most others here) think the way a student should play (using only your definitions) is to strive for '"THE most stylistic approach and the best way for period performance and an in depth knowledge of the piece". If you're playing a piece any other way, student or professional you're wasting your time (unless you've picked it to learn a specific technique), so pick a piece at an appropriate level at which you can realistically strive for this; otherwise it's just kidding yourself that you're that good.

i do actually strive for a professional performance, especially with The Sunken Cathederal (now one of my favourite pieces to play)
may not seem it but i do.

I don't think anyone has being doing it "for the sake of it"... (I don't think anyone beats their head against a wall for fun... I could be wrong!) as far as I have seen most people or possibly everyone on here have been trying, very hard, to convince GCBS out of making a foolish mistake... fortunately, that seems to have succeeded in SOME degree so...

someone care to clarify what else im missing?

if you accept (and are grateful for) all the valuable advice you've received, then you're not missing anything. just follow it and stop complaining - sometimes we all hear things we don't want to. if you don't want to read through all 18 pages then here's a summary:
1) work on appropriate repertoire (i know, i know...you've agreed to this, don't tell me again)
2)don't go around claiming to be perfect/playing at diploma level/making misleading comments about the length of time you've been playing/etc,etc
3)LISTEN to advice and don't be defensive, sure you should question things you don't understand/agree with but don't just ignore it or this thread will just go on and on...
4)if your teacher shares the views you expressed at the start of this thread, find a new one, because they are obviously seriously deluded and/or just a bad teacher.
5) use the edit function instead of quoting the past 800 posts and putting a one line reply beneath it. it's a waste of your time and everyone elses.
...i'm sure if i've missed some advice someone else will fill you in
and may i take this opportunity to thank you all for some top-class entertainment
