Purpose of Dome on Tweeter...


What is the purpose of the "Dome" on a dome tweeter? Will a dented or dimpled dome effect the sound dispersion coming from the tweeter? If not, why aren't they just pushed in at the factory? Better yet, if a dented dome doesn't effect the sound, it would seem as if it's a non important part in a tweeter so why not just build a tweeter without the dome at all?

Tweeters come in many types: Cone,Dome,Horn,Ribbon,Electrostatic,etc.
Why would the factory push in the Dome?
Would you buy a watch with no lens?
Like Mofi states,it's the design.
