Your perspective was one of the reasons that I had always stayed away from rotary horns. That is until I played one particular horn. I decided that the way that horn played for me was what I wanted, it just happened to have rotary valves.

Yes, taking apart a rotary valve is significantly more complicated than removing a piston. However, if properly maintained, you should never encounter the situation above. I have had my rotary valve horn for about a year and with regular, proper oiling I have never had any problems with the valves.
