Well, it is not how I see it. The topology of acoustic systems like Macondo implies the stand-alone tweeters. So, why do not make it attractive, or at least do not attracting attention but the fact that it is different? You see in Macondo MF island all channels are spherical, so I think it would be visually benefited if HF channels will not have hard rectangular shape. I leave the sonic reasons aside and approach tweeter just like a piece of furniture. If we already pay money for a driver and if we do not buy it in Radian Shake but talk directly to driver maker then why do not let exactly what you want intern to what manufacture fell comfortable to do. How many times are you are planning to change tweeter? If not frequently then why do not fantasy the tweeter you wish? I know that it would be hard to make but it is not your problem. You just write a check and the maker would suffer all do the difficult part. When I did the Water Drop I did paid more and waited longer just because the odd shape but on a larger scale what is the difference? Do a few more bucks worth for the next 25 years looking at my own speaker and close my eyes? Well, in my room Macondo is a part of room decor and I in fact care how it looks.

The Lazy Ribbon shape has advantage that it mooch be mounted in the frame the hold MF channel, however.  Also the name Lazy Ribbon I do not find was the good one.
