Expressivity on an instrument has a lot to do with the feel and dynamics of the player, the timing.But I do get the "overplaying" this part.
You can for sure overplay expression on all instruments that support it, that's not an MPE specific issue. With guitar, flute, strings you can do it too. And I also tend to find it tedious if used too much. In an arrangement, if every instrument is played with too much expressivity it will get difficult to listen to it.
When people talk of MPE expressivity, to me it seems more on just adding lots of modulation. I think it's even hard to design patches that could really give the expression of say a string instrument. I think there's a lot of potential, but e.g. per note pitch bend isn't too exciting to me...
Maybe I just need to see better MPE demos...
