Well that's interesting.

It looks to me though that the only guarantee to make "Simple Fit" work would be to use "Simple Fit Reeds" since there is no guarantee that you will pick a brand that has precisely compatible width.

Moreover I believe this is "over innovating." If, like violin, you had 3 and 4 year olds learning clarinet, you might need a "guide" to help toddlers understand alignment. But with a preponderance of middle school beginners (since,one, clarinet doesn't come in a conveniently small size; and two, woodwinds are not recommended for toddlers) this part of the chore of learning seems the least of our worries.

.........and.........

Now that I think about it, I like the fastidiousness that aligning a reed teaches from the beginning.
