Actually....i did thought of the top play for a while....on my oboe, if i relax the slightest there i would have big problems with response. I remember very sound advise from one oboe teacher of mine - the balance of both instruments come, obviously, first from the right thumb, then from the left index finger, and that is where most people seem to forget...not so much forget...but take for granted of, especially after many many years away from lessons....perhaps?
From your current state....considering you have discovered some possible instrumental flaws...try a DIFFERENT repairman! I see you are based in the UK, why not go to Yan Petrov? Our resident technical expert Chris would probably be more than happy to see your instrument as well!
Regards,
Howard
