If you can get the result only at a single point in space does it really satisfy the linear phase objective??
With a point source transducer in an anechoic environment the phase response you've shown might be achievable at a variety of microphone positions.
The audibility of phase distortion has been discussed in audio circles for years. There's still no consensus on whether it is or not. :)
Regarding the DEQX: It's difficult to say why that unit has not been more successful. It does what it's advertised to do, but I think this aspect of loudspeaker reproduction is not understood by the vast majority of audiophiles.
Cheers,
