Disney Wish Horns- I'm underwhelmed

I'm probably in the minority, but i find these horns incredibly fake.  I would say real ship's horns don't play chords, but some of the old ocean liners had multiple horns that in effect played a single chord, but the Wish's horns don't sound like that.

 

I know these are speakers, not real steam or air horns, but it seems like they could have made it better.  The simple tune the Magic and Wonder plays is so much better.  The Fantasy and Dream's horn speakers were slightly less in sound quality than the older ships, but they could play more tunes.  The wish can play still more, but they over-did it and it's just fake.  Just my opinion.  When the old ships leave (and they will sooner than many here believe) I'll miss their traditional charms.

 

For reference, a real ship's horn:
