I have a large romantic score in front of me. In the handwritten
score the \partcombine stuff is done inconsistently for unisono
sections: sometimes it's written as one voice with "à 2", sometimes
as two voices, i.e. one notehead with stems up and down. So far I
can't see any reason for this inconsistency.

What would people with more experience with orchestral scores suggest:

- transcribe everything as it is in the model?
- make it consistent:
   - use "à 2" always?
   - use voices always?

Assuming that this becomes a critical edition,

For now we're only preparing performance material of a piece where only the full score has survived. But in the back of my mind I keep the idea of making it a critical edition once ...

I suggest that you use
"à 2" consistently and note deviations of that in the editorial marks
section.  The score is then simply less crowded.

That's exactly what I thought. But I'll check Alex' suggestion first. That sounds at least very plausible.
