Dizzy Gillespie Trombone?

So I’m watching Dizzy Gillespie footage on YouTube and started wondering “How come we don’t have a bent horn trombone?”. Yes, of course I know the answer “a bent horn does not improve the sound on a trombone 😔”. But does anyone have a more interesting answer? Anyone know if it’s ever been tried?
