Slow slopes are supposed to keep phase flatter, maybe that's why.A word on B&W speakers, they seemed to have gone with very basic crossovers in a lot of their more recent iterations, usually only an inductor on its own for the low frequency driver which means the bass doesn't roll off as steep as it should and you get nasty cone breakup in the treble region. Why they do this I don't know, a few cheap changes to the crossover can make a dramatic difference as Rutcho outlines here.
Or maybe just because cheaper to make.
