Yes, I was thinking about this too.

The vent is a tad too high up, you'd need a very short extension (more like a distance ring on the tenon cork) which makes the whole contraption a bit wobbly, at least as long as you keep the peg on the bell and don't move it to the body.

I can take some pitch measurements if you like.
