There is no pre-determined scientific rule that 10dB is "natural" and 20dB is "artificial" "mammoth" "forced."
I can't think of a single conventional speaker that requires any active equalization at the top. Please cite an example.
You did not bring objective measurement showing that the end result is poor.
The concepts of uniform directivity and comb filtering are well established. Read up on them if you'd like to understand.
It is a commonly understood engineering practice when using conventional drivers to choose those where the piston size is smaller than the wavelength to reproduce. The directivity sharply narrows beyond those frequencies whether you equalize them or not.
