I'm acquainted with the "Low C" disease in many many F tubas. But why isn't the same problem encountered with low Bb on Eb tubas? I've maybe played only a dozen or so Eb instruments of various vintages and that note's never a problem, nor have I ever heard talk about it being one.

What makes the F's so "special"? It can't be just 2 semitones in fundamental pitch--there's got to be some design issue in these things.
