Really? Is that a criterion for a “real piano” to you?

Well prepare to tolerate: I do.
There are people with needs different than yours: people not gigging, people gigging and wanting to carry two boards, people not needing two or more sounds simultaneously, people accepting the NE constraints as a challenge…

Even the most basic no-brand keyboards have the capability of layering two sounds.
Maybe that is not your instrument and you should go no brand, no sarcasm here.
Technically, the gap between monotimbrality and multitimbrality (or monophonic and polyphonic for that matter) is a wider gap that one would expect.
My opinion is that one should get an instrument for what it is.
Not to mention market segmentation… anyways.
