a. I can't answer that except probably for ease of construction
b. So it's easier to make a convertible, marching model YBB-105M
c. Price, a school can buy 2 or 3 103s (105s) for the price of 1 621
d. Yes, except for the valves needed much attention. When (and if) I get tubas for my MS band, I'll get the Weril 680 from now on.
