Where do you see the conflict? You should take a loot at threads like "Is atonal music dead?" for some conflict
In any case, nobody's saying any different than the others.
And quoting wikipedia, "[15mb] could mean two octaves lower, but two octaves below the low notes of the bass clef is below the range of nearly all instruments."
So there, you probably won't need it. And btw, even if wikipedia mentions the probable existence of that symbol, and even if Sibelius has it, it doesn't mean people have been using it or that it is the easiest/clearest way to do things.
On a last note, don't care about playback: just write what should be write, and simply ignore the playback on that particular beat of the measure, if you really need the playback so badly.
