I think I get what you're trying to say. But the thing is, you would only get an increase in amplitude in the frequencies where the harmonics exactly overlap? And even then it's not: Distortion1 + Distortion2 = DistortionTotal, it's: SQRT(Distortion1^2 + Distortion2^2) = DistortionTotal. Meaning that the biggest contributor will by far be the dominating one. You would need a crapload of distortion over a wide frequency range to get anywhere remotely close to a 2dB increase?
You don't need to increase the entire signal by 2db for a small part of it to change significantly (ie. a voice vs the rest of the band)
