Is that really true? The two mics pick up different timbre aspects of
the instrument, so even if recorded in a way that I lose the opportunity
to mix them to my liking, don't I at least gain the mixture of the
timbre (albeit an inflexible one after recording) by using the two mics?


Sure, but you also get comb filtering issues and all sorts of other
trouble from using the two mikes. Try it with one mike and see.... move
it up and down and forward and back and see how the tone and ambience
change.
