Or is this just a case of a hyper-sensitive euphonium player who still gets upset when someone calls his euphonium a baritone?
Yes.
Just try to be happy that a big company like Yamaha spends its time making low volume professional-grade instruments at all.

It's not just Yamaha.
Getzen and
Kanstul (and others, probably) use the "background brass" term as well.

You could always put on some tights, grab a stick (not that kind) and pick up baton twirling.

Go ahead, Mary Ann. I know I'm not interested. He only makes many of us look bad.
By the way, I wouldn't be interested in any GUY! It doesn't matter what they are built like. Perhaps we should bring on the equivalent picture of a female for those of us who might appreciate the female form.
Go ahead and enjoy, Mary Ann.
