I see at least two problems:

1. As ratpack has mentioned it is not clear how the receiver makes its choice.

2. If it does compensate for some filter delay then this delay is frequency dependant, so some frequencies would be compensated correctly and some not. If, on the other hand, it's reflection then the delay does not depend on the frequency.

But, of course, it's just that, speculations. Besides, the difference, I suspect, is not that noticeable.
