The thing about piano is that if you learn to play, you generally learn a lot about music and theory and things that someone just picking up a guitar wouldn't learn right away. Notes are arranged in a much simpler way on the piano so I find certain things can be done easier on the piano and then transferred to a guitar perhaps. Pianos are very versatile, and a very useful instrument for a musician, this might be what she is talking about by saying it's the best instrument. I think that this song is just meant to be very ironic though, because no matter how great, influential and useful pianos can be...there is no piano in the song.
