Well, I admit that the fingering of Oehler is a little more difficult than Boehm. But I would argue that actually Oehler does not require players to learn as many odd fingerings as Boehm. That's why we see so many holes and complex mechanisms on the Oehler clarinets, resulting generally slight better intonation than Boehm. Also, the fingering for the third register in fact is easier than Boehm. Another minor benefit of Oehler is that on Oehler system, players can play more micro-tones by just using fingers while on Boehm we have to use the embouchure in a lot of cases.

It seems Boehm clarinet manufacturers are hesitating to add the keywork even through we all know it is not perfect and the keyworks for student instruments and professional instruments are almost same. I personally believe the simplified fingering actually would compromise the intonation. By contrast, the professional model (or soloist model) German clarinet usually has much more keys and tone holes than the student model. Some of them are for easier fingerings, some of them are for better intonation.
