Re: Question to folks who play eight-key simple system flute
Most of the well known Dm reels go to low C if you have it and choose not to octave fold them.
I respect people's privilege to hold their beliefs, whatever those may be (within reason), but respect the beliefs themselves? You gotta be kidding!

I regularly use all the keys on my flute, including the low C# and C, and play 90% ITM. Lots of Gm, Dm and C tunes that use the low C, and having the C# below bottom D is nice when playing in D for different variations.

I'm using the foot keys all the time, and be it only for the best middle c the flute can produce, xox xxx,, - honk. But there are a few nice tunes that work well with them, too.
