1. Would you knowingly subject your oboe to massive and sudden temperature changes?
2. Do wooden oboes 'blow out'?
3. The partial liner protects the most vulnerable section of the bore where cracks occur and the unlined section will still require oiling.
4. Delrin is a lower density material compared to ebonite, so you'll have to see which one you prefer - ebonite contains sulphur which can tarnish silver plate. The 'Jazz' models are made from marbled ebonite.
5. I've felt cors anglais with all wood or partially lined top joints do have more tonal depth compared to those with all plastic top joints, but you'd have to do direct comparisons to notice the difference.
