Re: this seems more likely

I think this is true for *series* crossovers (which cannot be bi-wired, BTW), because there is often a common "node" directly tied to both woofer and tweeter. In fact, I've seen tweeters go out quite often with such crossovers, because I think the woofer's "back EMF" energy can be transferred directly to the tweeter. (This could be why some series crossovers use a "blocking capacitor" in series with the tweeter.)
