Ok
So check out
Wicked One
and
WO 32
When I was looking at them again I just wondered if you flip'd a driver and corrected the horn length. Would it become a TH?

If I understand what you're saying, I don't think so.
A TH loads both sides of the driver into the horn path. One side of the driver enters the horn near the throat end, the other side near the mouth end. The back chambers on the WO/WO32 appear to be sealed, regardless of the direction of the woofer. Flipping the woofers still has one side loaded into a sealed box, not the horn path.
Mounting the woofers in the mouth would be a start towards a tapped horn, but you'd still need to sort out an appropriate path internally.

But if they are the same drivers and one is reversed isn't that the same?
You would effectively be doing the same thing just in a different way.
The front wave would be reaching the mouth at the same time the rear wave would.
Just a bizarre thought that I had.
Tx for poking into my mind.
