Let's see: the purpose of oleomargarine was to take the place of butter. It had to have yellow food coloring added to make it look like butter. Otherwise, it was no different in appearance than a block of shortening. So it was originally a substitute for butter. Now the question: what tuba takes the place of the "real deal," but plays and in some circumstances is preferred for a variety of reasons, including price?
The obvious answer, whichever company markets it, just like there is block oleo, whipped margarine, etc., with all the marketing claiming which one spreads better, tastes better, etc.: a Miraclone.

A 6/4 tuba. You think it's going to be better for you and then find out it's killing you.

I've truly been enjoying your musings.
I may - actually - need to award you with an "Honorary Southerner" ball cap.
You would - of course - need to add your own sweat stain.
If i am worthy, i shall earn my own stain of sweat wearing such an hat.
But only in appropriate context. I think some churches might frown upon it...
Sometimes nothing can be a pretty cool hand... er, hat i mean.
