Don't know if anyone has answered this yet. But I would assume that
the tweeters in Bass amps are for the ticks and pops of playing slap
bass.
Wonder what guitar amps would sound like with those tweeters in them?

Jeff:
I think the Jazz/Slap guru Stanley Clarke was one of the
first bassists to mess around with tweeters (and
frequency-based crossovers) in bass cabs back in the late
1970s...precisely for the reason you mention: slap and pop
(and "piccolo-bass") upper register clarity.
