The worst part of anyone's hand to support any wind instrument is the tip of the thumb, but that's what has been done since tubular woodwind instruments came into being.
Kooiman addressed this issue with the extension piece that rests on the thumb's 2nd knuckle as that's transferring the weight of the instrument to a much stronger part of the thumb, so anything that can be fixed to the thumbrest and transfer the weight nearer to the hand is much better in the long term.
