Since I was a child, every teacher I ever had threatened me with hell and damnation if I pulled out my mouthpiece. Yet I find that pulling it out just a hair, after having pulled out the barrel, works wonders on my throat- tone A, G-sharp and B-flat. The drawback is that by pulling out more than one joint, you are creating gaps between the joints and in theory, this isn't good. Yet I don't find this has an adverse effect on tone and response. On an 188O Couesnon that I have, I have no choice but to pull out the mouthpiece. The barrel and the upper joint are all of a piece! -no barrel to be pulled out.
