I don't know. But the original video--granted a clarinet where ALL tone holes are covered by pads, not just the LH index finger ring you describe (and its associated hardware modifications jdbassplayer discussed)--seemed to infer that the clarinet body had differently undercut tone holes to permit the clear voicing of notes with open pads on this plateau instrument, where those pads were so close to the tone holes that if that distance was mimicked by a finger on an non-plateau clarinet, it would dampen sound.

I'm thinking that there's "stuff" going on inside the pipe that we can't see in addition to the visually obvious hardware changes on the outside.
