I've heard this before. Still, I don't want to take the sopranos up to c#'''
without a complling reason.

Classical singers, voice teachers, and musicians in general take it as an

Another thought: Although I never really formulated it as such, I guess I
think of the distance between men's voices and women's voice more like a
ninth rather than an octave.
For example:
- chorus altos on low G is like chorus basses on low F
- chorus tenors on high G is like chorus sopranos on high A
- baritone soloist's high F is like mezzosoprano soloist's high G
etc
