The logic was: to keep the expense of the action to a minimum, concentrating the resources instead on the pipes. A house organ, with a rich warm 8� principal (with open pipes from low C!) as the basis for a chorus of stops whose character is between principal and flute.
Given the short distance from key to windchest and the small pallets the action can easily come out feeling too light for the organist. Here the pallets are over dimensioned and the wind pressure is very high so that the all important "pluck" is, which is right at the top of the key travel because of the suspended action, is like that in a larger instrument.
