Thanks. Distinguish how so? What does it actually do depending on that choice and why does it do it? I so appreciate your help as always!

And yes, the Nashville folks do always (well almost always as a standard) stick to the major perspective when writing a "minor" progression. It makes it faster for them to write and communicate a chart without all the changes to the numbers and addition of flats etc. or the complex changes that one might do with the Roman numeral system. I know everyone does not do it this way, but in that community (especially for guitarists since one can so easily transpose up the neck or with a capo) they have chosen this as a standard. I know you probably know this - I am just clarifying my perspective for this question, not debating the various numbering schemes.
