...which fits rather well with your hypothesis about non-guitar-playing activities adding to your playing, yes?

As for not improving since '73, that begs the question "What needs improvement?" He's a damn fine player, and if you check out some of his work outside Pink Floyd, you'll find he does what he does at least as well as anyone else does. I can happily listen to his stuff for several hours - while supposedly superior virtuosos sound very stale after about 10 minutes.
