It all depends on what you find convenient and what source material you
have available.
For example, sometimes you have a set of hand-written orchestral parts
that you want to make readable, in which case it's easiest to input the
notes as they are written in the original parts (including transposition).
On the other hand, if you are composing, it's probably easier to input
the notes as they should sound and let LilyPond take care of the
transposition.

Hi LilyPond Gurus,
I cannot quite find figure out from the manual which is a better practice when
typesetting transposing instruments (say, a B\flat clarinet):
1) Specifying \transposition bes { ... } and then writing out the
transposed part. Or
2) Using \transpose bes, c {\transposition bes ...} and notating in C?
Thanks.
