Sorry, no. At 1k, you will not see tuning effects. However this is a simulation of a front baffle with 22cmx36cm and a 6.5" driver sitting at the usual position without any parameters. Just the acoustic load of the baffle This hump is the diffraction effect, indeed. There is not a lot you can do with a 6.5" driver on such a baffle.
I use this little simulation tool a lot and I always compare the results with measurements. It shows me how much I have to do about the hump and what is the pure baffle step. If I have more space on the front baffle, I can reduce the hump by moving the driver around, but with a classic 2-way bookshelf, it's difficult.

Yes, I thought it was diffraction. The only way to reduce the effects at any particular frequency seem to be with some driver offset on a rectangular baffle, although this can affect lobing if too extreme which needs consideration. I've used 12mm thick (shaped) acoustic wool felt before now but prefer not to do that if possible. The narrower the cab, especially when using offset tweeters, the less of an issue it appears to be. Shaped front cabs are something I'm playing around with for a new 3 way design, but as with all these things, optimising cab design = greater expense at manufacture.
Simulation tools are a godsend. I'm constantly impressed by just how close simulation can get to actual measurement, given you feed the sim tool with measured impedance and acoustic (raw) data. I know that some use library data but I (I presume, like yourself) like to use measured data with the drivers in the cabs, imported back into the sim software.
