True enough. But if you look at trombonists as a whole, the vast majority *are* jazz/commercial players, and the extraordinary majority of them either come from jazz band/concert band settings (where bass and treble clef are in extreme majority) or from similar settings.
Actually, if we're looking at trombonists as a whole, the largest majority of trombonists are amateurs who play everything from jazz and dance band to concert band, community orchestra and brass ensemble, and ethnic music such as Klezmer or German Band music.
Far more amateurs than professionals, many of whom are quite comfortable with tenor clef, but the vast majority of them are only comfortable in bass clef.
Not in my experience, but then, we obviously come from far different places and backgrounds.
