Some of us never change mouthpieces on the clarinet as both classical and jazz engagements need both loud and soft playing. A good mouthpiece should allow both. We don't concern ourselves very much about jaw strength.
In regard to open mouthpieces, I played with a tenor saxophonist named Joshua Jackson a long time ago. He played on an Otto Link mouthpiece with a 0.180 inch opening, on which he could play very very loud and very soft. He sold me a double ring Link mouthpiece because it was too closed for him.
Good luck!
