A trumpet player that has one dynamic, FFF, is a rank amateur.

Absolutely correct. The trumpet can be played at soft dynamics and still maintain its characteristic, exciting tone. Anyone who can't needs more practice and/or a more efficient mouthpiece. Anyone who won't is, well, not much of a musician.

Unfortunately, conductors of many community bands I've been a part of simply abhor the prospect of the audience thinking that the trumpet section is in any way wimpy. As a result, the blasting continues, unabated, and sometimes even encouraged.
