Who knows ? Do you recall the Nile act of Aida ? The violin introduction ? I do that on the horn occasionally : low c, c1, c2 , c3, c3, c2, c1, c - one half step lower, a full step lower, etc. - but not legato, but tongued. Good targetting exercise.
What might the advantages be of tonguing over slurring such an exercise? I think you answered this with "targetting exercise," but are there any other thoughts?
Would it make a difference if one were to start with the c's and work down or if one started on a lower note and worked up?
