I think the idea of the Acton vent was taken from the concept of Oehler system clarinets whereby a closed tonehole should have two open toneholes below it for good venting - the Acton vent making sure B and F# (and alt. Eb) effectively has the RH2 tonehole open for these notes when using the xxx|oxo fingering.

I also think Reform Boehms may have had this vent developed in parallel with the development of the Acton vent on the 1010 - two identical ideas but both being developed independently from one another. But that's speculation.

If you look up modern German makers of Reform Boehms, some will state they have the Acton vent fitted in the specifications list.

Nowadays you'll find French features on German instruments and German features on French instruments - although both French and German instruments are still very different from one another, they will share some ideas between them where they see the benefit.

The opinions I express are my own.
