This seems to be ‘the best’ way to create a low tuned and very ‘loud’ vented (large) box for drivers that don’t have the low Qes, etc that would work well in a tapped ‘horn’ (expanding path instead of tapering)?
one that doesn’t have a tiny windy bass reflex port or an oversized chamber ?
I find all the harmonics and cancelation freqs interesting to locate and how they relate the the length of the resonator (and a little bit to the shape). (For fun)

No one should ever build a "tiny windy bass reflex port enclosure."
I might have to disagree on the oversized chamber tho'. A compression chamber can help make the port smaller, but not windy.
From Tom Danley's tapped horn patent.

I wonder when the ‘chamber/port‘ designs size/shape is less affective (cone control and vent speed) than the tapered or stepped qw pipe ?
You would have to test expansion vs tapered vs stepped expansion vs stepped tapered with the exact same driver.
Yeah, but also choose specific drivers that work well in either of those resonator shapes ??
low Qes/high motorforce for the expanding shape and the opposite for the other kinda?
I mean, ‘everything‘ kinda sounds good in the tapered shape
