Joseph, I also have a 2001 901, and I completely agree with you.
I also don't doubt the current situation with the wood, which is a real shame for such a beautiful instrument, and I know others suspect it to be true of the Lorees of late as well. For the record, five Lorees in our studio have cracked this semester, and they have all been recent (last couple of years) purchases.
There is something about old wood that seems to give warmth and character to an instrument to me. As long as the mechanics are stable, I personally would be attracted to the seasoned (of reputable manufacture, of course!) oboe most times.
I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that rosewood is a wood better suited to chamber music as it doesn't project to the same degree as grenadilla. What you end up with could be determined by what you intend to use it for.
