Hi Geoff, I'm not aware of any "tests" that show bass to treble tuning is more accurate or more stable. It may be true that "unisons as you go" is more stable (and therefore often more accurate). There is no reason to not strip mute just the temperament area--but it is entirely possible to do it with a single mute--or a split mute and get the benefits of "unisons as you go".
