I wouldn't call it goofy, but where did you come up with the design? Assuming you want to go down to 40Hz with the woofer the horn must be at least seven feet long. As to 'not finding anything close to this design', my David speaker is a folded bass horn crossed over to a direct radiating MTM at 200Hz. The horn length is eight feet.

I was just doodling speaker ideas, using a single kerfed edge, this was the one I liked the most. But,I can't find any speaker designs that have a passive radiator fire mid-bass into a horn, nor cabinets that have both Full sealed box airspace requirements and a horn. I'm not oblivious, I was just wondering if anyone has ever played around with these ideas and if they work. I'm thinking about moving the passive rads to the outside edges of both towers.
I haven't decided on dimensions yet, So math aside, is there anything that looks flawed. I discovered sketch-up last night so I'm going to do the math and make this a build log.
The way you are doing it could take a long path. Very many variables and you are changing more than one at a time which is not the best approach. Nothing wrong with what you are doing, but it's just a shot in the dark unless you start out with a known design and modify one thing at a time so you can keep track of what is changing.
