Exactly.  That said, I also believe that the naturals are much easier  
in these terms than the accidentals.  Rarely do you have to avoid a  
natural note because it will stand out in a negative way.

Glad to hear it.  I must have been mistaken when I got the opposite  
impression from a previous post of yours in this thread.
