Agreed.

Again, agreed. "Vented" fingerings are more likely, (in my experience), =
to produce the 3+ chords.

2.4, most likely a function of the individual > flute construction.
A lot depends on the individual instrument, (and individual), of course, =
due to the nature of the critters. However, very generally speaking, I =
find that the larger instruments produce these effect more readily.
