A few years ago, IDRS Double Reed Journal published a two part interview with Ron Fox. Ron went into great detail about the specific virtues of ring system instruments.
Some ring systems have a "Bleuzet system" mechanism
(linked to the ring D key) that makes a perfect D#-E trill possible.
There is (in my estimation) nothing "wrong" with a ring system oboe instrument,
and in fact much to recommend ring system instrument. Less metal to mover around...
Some of the old Cousenon ring system oboe and English horn (often marked "Triebert," or "Robert") were fabulous.
Some of the old ring system Cabart and Loree English horns have a presence and sonority not to be rivaled by later plateau style instruments.
