Many people use Eb's in public settings. There are even some pros who use them for their "small" horns instead of the F's that most pros use. I don't think you would have to ever learn a different keyed tuba if you didn't want to, but learning BBb from Eb isn't very hard anyway. Some public schools used to start younger students on Eb's and switch them to BBb when they got older.

As for playability, there is a lot of variability in that term. I suggest calling and talking to David directly. He will give you an honest answer.
