I agreed with you up until about 2006. One of my saxophone playing colleagues was doing a solo piece in front of the band and at one point as he took the mouthpiece out of his mouth it brushing his lip and the reed spun nearly a complete 45 degrees! He just moved it back and finished his piece. Because he has one of the biggest and loveliest saxophone sounds I’ve heard, I was interested in finding out how what I saw was possible. He later explained that his formative teacher had him secure the ligature as loose as possible for the best sound. Quite frankly he really does have a wonderful sound. And for the record he also plays a mean bassoon too.
Even with ALL that, it took another ten years before I gave it a whirl. I regret being so recalcitrant but never regretted finally giving in.
