If anything, ALL toneholes are creating a disturbance in the bore, so plugging one up completely is only going to reduce the amount of disturbances and chances are you're not even going to notice it anyway.

There are three Eb/Bb toneholes all at the same distance (give or take around 1mm in both distance and in diameter) along the length of the bore, so that's a considerable disturbance at that point. Plugging one of them up is not going to adversely affect anything and if your upper register A is grunty, that's probably more to do with the speaker tube than the Eb/Bb toneholes.

And remember - upper register A issues from the LH3 tonehole and not the LH2 tonehole chimney which is the tonehole where long Bb (xoo|xoo) issues from.
