Hi everyone
How do you think if playing vibraphone (or xylophone) useful for drummers?

In russian musical colleges you have to study vibraphone in addition to drum set (if this jazz/pop department) and a lot of students disagree with this.
How many French horn players do you see being pulled off their instrument to play the trumpet, tuba, sousaphone, or a trombone? How many oboe or clarinet players do you see being pulled off their instrument to play a saxophone? It doesn't happen. As a drummer, you are considered to be someone who "hit things with a stick", so I guess that means you are required to learn how to play every percussion instrument under the sun.

So I'd like to find out how things stand with this in US.
Thank you again
