I think this oversimplifies the pressure vs. velocity subject. I've just
reviewed Howard M. Tremaine's discussion of mics in his Audio Cyclopedia.
In *every* case he refers to ribbon-velocity mics as contrasted to pressure
responding condenser and dynamic types. However, he acknowledges there
certainly are bi-directional condenser mics ... without explanation.

Nope, it's not oversimplified at all. There are bidirectional ribbon
microphones, and they are velocity microphones.

Yeesh. I mean bidirectional condenser microphones.
