I think that this is true with trombones. Going from tenor to bass, and from different bore basses, I can see your point. The smaller horns tend to be more focused on a particular pitch, with less flexibility within the slide position. My particular favorites have been a bach 50B3 of some kind with a 10 1/2 inch bell as far as placing a particular note in a position, and lipping the note in-tune. with my holton tr181, I have to use more slide movement to play a note in tune.
