Maybe it's a right vs left coast thing. I still hate those
triangles for major 7ths and the minus dash for minor 7ths. Ugh.
May I refer you to the Gibraltar and Friends fakebook (not its
official name, but that's the first tune), in which the turnaround
for Stolen Moments (4th structure built up from D, (D,G, C) rises in
semitones, and is noted as D4, Eb4, etc.? Other tunes in the book are
similar.
That's partly why I don't like ambiguous chord symbols.
