To the contrary, I think that's an excellent reason for a double tuba. We all want to be able to play really technical stuff, regardless of what register it's in. Why should that be the realm of only the Tommy Johnson's of the world (I'm exaggerating to make a point)?

Now, my next question is this, wouldn't a M-W Hilgers F tuba almost be what you're talking about? From what I understand, those can be supplied with a perfect fifth (Bb) valve too.
