Not sure what about that is not obvious. Say you buy a guitar, and it comes with D'addario strings on it. They play perfectly in tune, but you decide you dont like them. You try some other strings out, and decide you really like the sound of La Bella flamenca negra trebles, but they dont intonate. Well, first, you might buy another set to make sure you dont have a bad set. If they still dont intonate, then you must file the saddle appropriately for these strings, obviously, or they will not play in tune. That's all fine and good. Not a big deal to do that, especially if you're skilled and have the tools to do it yourself, or have a good luthier near by. But if not, its not so convienient to have to do all that. And if you decide you want to return to the D'addario's, you'll have to do it all again. you might being saying to yourself, "Why do strings randomly not tune up on certain guitars??" Well, GREAT QUESTION. Who knows. Its related to diameter and density of the string itself. I would imagine its a complicated answer. Carbon strings are notorious for this behaviour because they're generally much smaller in diameter than plain nylon, and usually more dense.
