I'd tend to agree.  Duckworth most likely assumed the regular role of 
Scrooge's butler to give the depiction of "mansion life" in the DUCKTALES series a 
more consistent look.  Note, too, the interior shots of the mansion were 
remarkably consistent from episode to episode.  As opposed to something like THE 
FLINTSTONES, where the interior of Fred and Wilma's house looked and was furnished 
differently IN EVERY EPISODE.  

I'm surprised no one has mentioned it yet, but Duckworth did appear in 
William Van Horn's "Snore Losers", from Disney Comics' DONALD DUCK ADVENTURES # 5 
(OCTOBER, 1990).  I'd imagine this was his only appearance outside of actual 
DUCKTALES comics.
