I think your friends idea is a great one. In fact I think that a whole step ascending 5th valve would be the added feature, that would perfect the standard 3+1 compensating instruments.

But your listing of the fingerings used by your friend has me feeling lost about two notes:

"F 5
E 25"

I simply do not understand, from which partial those notes would derive with the suggested fingerings.

My guess is that the "5"-es are typos for "4".

But then that would leave me suspicious about the intonation of especially the F, as you have stated, that the 4th valve is tuned very low.
