But, alas, we have no C clarinet players in our orchestra. And just to show
our true ignorance, neither the other clarinet players nor our conductor
knew C clarinets existed.

So we could debate (as we have before) how important it is to play what the
composer intended as opposed to what the player does - but in this case, we
need Bb or A transpositions so we can play it at all. We could also sight
transpose it - but that would be much harder and the effect would be the
same.

.... but C clarinet is clearly what he wanted.
