I submit that adding that tiny resistor to compensate for DCR of the coil will such make such a minuscule difference to the crossover point as to be inaudible. I would not be surprised if the DCR of the two woofers at the crossover differ by a larger value than that.

I replaced the iron core inductor in my Rectilinear Highboys with air cores and couldn't really hear a difference. Maybe I don't listen loud enough for core saturation to be an issue, but it's plenty loud in my room.
