That would be true if you were talking about textbook alignments. But start skewing the curves around to tailor the acoustic responses and you will see what I mean. The inherent interaction of the series crossover limits what you can do in this regard.
The classic example is the Magnestand MMG crossover.

You are correct that shallowing of the electrical slopes in the newer models resulted in simpler networks. But, I maintain, the reason for doing so is practical and not performance.
