If piano players could bend notes, surely they would.

In fact, many piano players try to imply note bending by decorating the notes they play. Hammond organists have learned to shut of the tone generator for a second or two to slow it down and bend notes. Synth players have pitch control wheels. And in the land of free reeds, bending makes the harmonica what it is, the most popular musical instrument of all time I do believe. It goes without saying that bending is an integral part of playing sax, guitar, and dozens of other popular instruments.
