Yes, you're perfectly right. I admit I'm not a font expert, so I'm not able
to understand if my changing are breaking the general balance of the font.
Someone I asked for (and who asked me for this drawing, a person who is
quite fond of fonts and a gregorianist) says he finally would change just
the oriscus liq. glyph, but he'll keep the other neumes as they are in
Greciliae, to preserve this overall flow, and leaving new shapes as an
optional choice.
Maybe this is a wise solution...

Thank you very much,
