Yes, lets talk transposition.

I know of several alto clarinetists, alto saxophonists, bari saxophonists,
and other people who play instruments pitched in the key of Eb that actually
write out the parts that they transpose from the bass cleff without ever
noticing they are copying the page exactly as it is with the exception of
the key signature and a few accidentals. Add three sharps and pretend it is
a treble cleff and you're all ready to go! I know a sax player who wrote out
a zillion page cello score like this for a musical.

Now if you don't know, you know.
