No Eb is a huge red flag and suggests the creator plays a well-tempered tuned instrument like piano.
D sharp is slightly higher in pitch than Eb in Pythagorean tuning.

There are extraordinarily few contexts in music history where their difference is irrelevant, such as some Schoenberg pieces but for literally anything else even for 99% of atonal pieces the difference has some kind of relevance to musicians.
- darkflame91 3y agoEven in tempered music theory, calling a note a sharp or a flat generally depends on the scale. For eg: Bb major uses: Bb C D Eb F G A Bb while A# major uses: A# B# Cx D# E# Fx Gx A# (x indicates double-sharp) Despite all the notes being exactly the same on a tempered instrument.
- pomatius 3y agoHaving both is still important in tempered instrument notation. Even if they sound the same, they aren't from a music theory standpoint.
