I respectfully disagree. Most of the situations I get in is where music
is read on site. I avoid B#, Cb, E# and Fb on parts including chord
names, but the score needs to stay correct. In my compositions, the
'correct' means psychologically speaking, because my music never have
key sig, even for transposed parts. It is very important to me.
In my experience this kind of approach will eventually lead to a lot of
confusion in rehearsals, and a lot of waisted time.

I think that this is the dichotomy between "classical" (or Dennis's
"non-pop") music and pop/jazz music.
In a string quartet or a recorder consort or a brass quintet or
orchestra, I agree with Johannes that it would lead to confusion.
But in a jazz/pop setting I don't think it would create any sort of
wrinkle at all.
And it also depends on the situation -- writing for a published edition
where the editor/composer/arranger isn't going to be present at all the
rehearsals or performances, Johannes is correct.
But I think Hiro is writing for his own group, so he's right there to
explain any confusion which might arise. But from the way he writes in
his messages, it really sounds as if he's found the right point of view
in his writing for his own musicians.
