In any case, where's the first downbeat of Beethoven 5? If it's impossible to determine, then what should be notated?

This reminds me of a point RE that symphony: it's earliest listeners would have had no idea, upon hearing the opening notes, whether the piece was going to be in major or minor mode--and they probably would have assumed the former. The definitive turning to the dark side a few bars in must have been a deliberate effect on B's part, but it's impossible to hear that today, because we know in advance what's coming.
