Default Landslide piano

Landslide - what a brilliant song. I think possibly the greatest song Stevie Nicks has ever written. Has truly stood the test of time. But what gets me is how simple it is. Four chords: E flat, B flat, D, C minor 7.
A very simple melody which mainly alternates between B, G, A, D and E. No major jumps...no perfect fourths or fifths as far as I can see looking at the score.
But it is so touching still, after all these years.
BUT - why has Stevie NEVER played this song on piano? I mean here was her chance. Lindsey is gone, so the forgone conclusion of doing Landslide on guitar with Lindsey was not a thing.
Why is Stevie performing Landslide with Neil when she should be playing it herself on piano? It makes no sense. If she wanted Lindsey gone so badly why isn't she showing her skills and actually getting behind an instrument that demos on YouTube of songs like Sisters of the Moon and Planets of the Universe SHOW - she can competently play piano!



Listen to this and tell me she cannot play:
