Chris -- There actually is a high F slipped into St. Matthew -- for orchestra I d'amore I, beginning of the second Part, @mm84. And I am pretty sure I have had to play it in other music as well, though right now I can't place which work. I agree with you about the third octave key generally; in my old Laubin, which had no third octave key, there was never a problem.
I wonder if there is a timbre difference between the old and the new Marigaux d'amores. From your description it appears that there is some keywork difference (beyond the fact that my instrument is semi-automatic and yours is fully so). Your purchase price certainly was different! Sounds like a great buy.
