Yeah, I know that your talking keys (And I was talking about the key of Gb and key of F#), I just don't believe it. For fun I play some Eric Clapton stuff on my Eb tuba, along with the CD. Most of the stuff is in the key of E or A (common guitar keys) which under your theory doesn't lie well on an Eb tuba, but yet after I got used to playing in those keys I felt the key of E was a good key, and lies well on an Eb tuba. It was a little edgier, which I personally like.
