Hey, you can have your cake and eat it, too - my first 'real' oboe, Lorée GG38, made around 1910, had a LH C# alongside the LH F, the usual B and Bb on the left and an auxiliary low C under the thumb rest, which was raised on a block.
It also had a semi-automatic octave key, rollers between the low C and Eb and a thumbplate as well as the RH 1st finger bridge key.
How's THAT for bling?
