Hi Magfan,
Your point about the importance of phase angle is certainly a good one. However, the specific issue I was addressing, the possibility that amplifier clipping caused by the relatively low sensitivity of the speaker coupled with the low power rating of the amp might in turn cause tweeter damage, I think would still be a concern even if the speaker were purely resistive, with 0 phase angle at all frequencies.
Best regards,
