Jeff, Yes to your question. Classically trained musicians prefer to have their sheet music presented to them in a random fashion with no prior preparation. That allows them to physically adjust to the beginning of the section they play in. That way the responsibility for the correct placement is up to the musician and not some stage hand. Just like paratroopers always pack their own parachutes. It has been that way in the orchestra since the early days.

There is a story that Mozart once was presented with the sheet turned to the middle section and he was playing the first section. He stormed off the stage and never again played that venue again.

So I hope this helps you better understand the logic in the BIAB programing.
