Yeah, reed instruments are difficult. Not as difficult as double reeds, from what I hear, but still reasonably difficult.
One orchestration trick I read a while ago was: never write octaves for your clarinet! Even if they play the fundamentals in tune, the way overtones and partials stack with clarinets mean that octaves sound out-of-tune.
