Thanks for the response. And before I go on, I want to say that I am not arguing for the falsity of the RPW, but rather I want to know how it stands against certain objections. I am not very knowledgeable about it, and I therefore request that my questions are not taken as attacks but are only from curiosity and for my discernment.

What else qualifies as circumstantial?
Are the psalms that do indicate a tune only to be sung in that tune?
Does the Bible state anywhere that we are only to sing psalms specifically?
I have to go now, but I have some more questions that I need to articulate. Thank you.
