We recently had a song where there were at least 10 (!) switches
between the choir being notated on 4 and 2 staffs, and the cleff for
the tenor (my voice...) changing from G (luckily not G_8 or G^8) to F,
and back again. You bet I complained! Did that help? Nope...

I'm _still_ trying to get my conductor to switch to Lilypond, but alas...
