Huh???? Either I don't understand the intended humor, or that's a slightly naive question. Are you suggesting that orchestral clarinetists don't have both A and Bb clarinets? Or that violists try to play their parts on violins? Or ... or what? That wind players are no longer using 1-keyed flutes or natural trumpets in F (except in period orchestras)? But you're right about concert/transposed being a religious debate. Like Mac/Windoze.
