Reporting the key signature of a score is not really OR, though. It's
a trivial fact verified from a reliable source. If there are
absolutely no secondary sources about the piece at all, then of course
we can't have an article, but if they exist and simply forget to
mention the key signature then there is no real problem reporting it
since any editor *can* cross-check it without specialist knowledge
(albeit with additional work).
That sounds very much like sucking and blowing at the same time. On the
one hand you admit it's not really OR, and then proceed with
consequences based on its being OR.
