If you're talking about transconductance,

Ya, because they have that fun little exponential Vbe
curve.

So far, so good.

Yes, and the Vbe curve relates very closely to the standard definition of
transconductance, right?

Beta is to transistors what Gm is to tubes and
FETs, and you know it...

Huh?
