When I played on a Loree, years ago, I also had the half-hole slit enlarged for the C# color, and found that, at least at the high altitude at which I live, I had to entirely lift the index finger of my left hand off of the half-hole key to play third octave D at forte. At piano it would play with the usual half-hole arrangement. I quickly accomodated to that change, and never had to think about it (until I changed oboes). At high altitude many such changes or adjustment problems are magnified.
