Not only  Ted Ross; also Elaine Gould.  And Gould appears to be much more  
thorough and careful about beaming than any of the previous engraving  
references.

However, I completely agree that the human engraver is (or should be) free  
to choose their style.  But if it requires consistent manual beaming, the  
choice is not really there.
