They just don't do everything at the extremes. There is a reason that Lowther doesn't publish response curves for their drivers.BTW, I'm listening to Lowther DX4's as I type this.
The thing they do best, when augmented correctly, is keep the crossover out of the vocal ranges and give great mid-range coherence.
Their high efficiency also matches well with low power SET amps.
Best sound per dollar I've heard?
Madisounds Fostex BK16 kit - killer sound for around $700 - Augmented with a tweeter.
The issues ou mentioned in your post, either are not viable issues or are overwhelmed by the benefits of these units
