Things get very difficult, very fast, though, which is why most people stop with the simple semi-heuristic derivation of the DALR in spite of the fact that its idealizations aren't very good and it at best gives you insight and conceptual power to make estimates and develop rules of thumb, not so much provide strong predictive power in atmospheric dynamics.

None of them would argue that there is no such thing as an (approximate) DALR visible in atmospheric dynamics, and they all are perfectly happy working with e.g. potential temperature instead of straight up temperature as a consequence.
