Yeah, it's kinda like the thing with sampled drums, where you didn't get the sound of all the other drums vibrating in sympathy. Eventually, the people making the samples figured out that you had to set up a full drumkit, and put up mics and let the snares rattling bleed into the bass drum mic or whatever, when doing samples.
The really cool thing about the Nord digital piano is, at least as I can understand from their website, it can also take all the samples from their library. So your digital piano can not only do the Steinway thing, but also the Clavinet thing, the Fender Rhodes thing, the Wurlitzer thing, the Mellotron thing, etc, ALL in one keyboard. That's kinda cool I think. It's expensive, but it's gotta be cheaper than owning an actual Steinway (and certainly easier than traveling with all of those keyboards).
