Corner base trap- to the ceiling?


I see lots of corner bass traps installed where they don’t go all the way up to the ceiling. I guess bass sound waves more so accumulate in the lower side of a room, but don’t a lot of these pressure amplitudes reach the upper half? Wouldn’t it be better to have a corner base trap extend all the way up to the ceiling?

Is it possible to have too many bass traps in a room?

Why can't I edit the topic field? Yeah I discovered bass was spelled wrong because I have to dictate everything. I missed seeing the misspelling before I posted and now I can't change the damn field.

I guess my question is this: If you take out your feelings about AF, he is presenting a solution that is backed up by the numbers. Mathematically, you would want to know how much pressure you have and at each frequency. Then you would want to apply the solution that is designed to fix the issues (unwanted high pressure frequencies.) 

If there is another solution out there (corner bass traps) that can also be used, where is the objective data and room testing process that dictates proper performance in mitigating the unwanted frequencies?
