By the way, regarding Kroll's edition for BG (not his edition for Peters Ed.).



I think the arrangement of the sharp key signatures is remarkable.  It makes much more sense than the usual and customary arrangement, and provides a perfect symmetry to the flat signatures.  I don't know why it wasn't universally adopted; it would seem much more logical and more easily comprehensible by people learning theory.  I've never seen this used anywhere else (not even elsewhere in BG), unfortunately, and have no idea where the convention originated.  Perhaps one or more of the sources use this pattern, but I've never seen another published edition using this convention.
