Rick Denney (making the argument for the side that I'm usually on) says "I've seen a French C Tuba, and it looks just like a present day Euphonium".

I'm feeling contrary, so I'll switch sides and ask: but Rick...have you looked at
the other brass instruments from the same era? Should the tubist faced with Bydlo strive for the same sound produced by the French C tuba? or, should he strive for the same balance with the rest of the orchestra (in particular, the other brass?)
