Has the same effect Andrew, though achieved differently.
I suggest Matt, that computer modelling has similar deficiencies to those outlined on one guy's bottom line on Tesla; numerous software designed solutions and analyses, many of which bear little or no relation to reality.
You could of course write to the various academics and correct their misconceptions, I'm sure they would be grateful.
When I added stuffing to my 2 way infinite baffle speakers the only effect was to degrade sound quality quite noticeably. I was unable to perceive any benefits whatsoever. I used the highly recommended (at the time) long haired sheep wool, piled in the base and more of it suspended in a 'basket' made of garden netting. Still have a box of it somewhere.

If the frequency response was flat before stuffing, then as I said above, adding stuffing can reduce the low frequencies. It can also change the frequency response higher up In the frequency range but all this depends on the type of stuffing, how much and where It was placed In the cabinet.
