While I'm not a cellist, I personally don't see much point in using tenor clef very often in cello parts, since, as you say, bass clef is fine up to around G4 -- at which point, why switch to tenor clef when you're already up in the middle of the treble clef?

As a bassoonist and composer, I never, ever, write the tenor clef, though of course I can read it fluently. Any professional bassoonist, cellist, or trombonist will know how to read the treble clef, and IMO the tenor clef should be retired permanently.

Makes sense to me.
