Please explain what is the functionality of the two bottom holes of the flute at the bottom of the flute (often they are on the back of the flute)? In theory, the third hole from the bottom is the lowest note of the flute with all playing (finger) holes (eight) closed, and it turns out that the wavelength is limited by this hole. Why are two more holes needed below, for what reason?
Short answer, for better tuning. If those 2 holes didn't exist, the lowest note's "hole" would be the end of the flute. By making those extra 2 holes, the maker can better control the tuning.
