I can offer a datapoint here -- about 6 months ago, I bought a NOS
Viscount bottom bracket
spindle. Its original packaging was labeled "Tapered Axle", part
number BYC-01368-C0-00,
and was in fact tapered. I have no idea if they were made to match a
Viscount crank, or
if they later switched to a different crankset, while keeping the
same press-fit bearing style
bottom bracket.
