I would think that the mouthpiece furnished by the manufacturer with the
clarinet would come closest to being optimized for that particular clarinet.
Why should it be otherwise?

Correspondingly, I'm surprise at the ads in Woodwind Brasswind for the
high-end clarinets that are sold without a mouthpiece.

Seems that anyone would occasionally pull the OEM mouthpiece out of storage
and check to be sure that it is not actually better than some aftermarket
mouthpiece that they had been using a while.

It is logical also to assume that a beginner-level clarinet OEM mouthpiece
would best be tested with a soft reed, an intermediate level mouthpiece with
an intermediate numbered reed, etc.
