Thanks, John, Robert and David. That is the explanation I expected, but it's hard for me to swallow the reasoning that this tradition should hold for modern valved horns and not for trumpets - more or less modern valved bugles. Doesn't make sense to me, and if there is a defensible new convention that says treat all transposing instruments equally (with key signatures), I choose that option.
