This is true in the Latino World, As they think trumpet like. If you ever had t o deal with Latinos, you will understand. They think their World As Be the Universe. Ridiculous. Even NATO is OTAN there, AIDS converts to SIDA, etc. As they are Forced to translate everything according to their Spanish, Portuguese or Even French Language & Grammar. Many of them, also in Germany don't Even Know the F-fingerings , but call themselves "Professionals" - a Big Shame.
A modern double Horn has to Be treated As a Horn with Four valves which are Equal in importance. These Latinos prefer a Horn playing style similar to a "Flügelhorn"- and many of them Sound such. Sorry. All this refusal of the F-Side or F-Horn is the Source of so many Intonation Problems, which could Be so over so easy, if Players would use both Sides , F & Bb Equally, according to the particular Intonation & Sound requirements. Latinos also think "Concert" .
