It may  be related, however, if it turns out that both bloom and swell  (to
differentiate between the two) have something to do with the amount  of
potential energy in the soundboard system and the amount of energy  input
required to release it.  

These words are not interchangeable, I think, but are related. JD's  
question regarded overall "bloom" and what we have been diverging into is more  in 
the individual string sustain curve--attack, "swell", sustain (decay). Or 
so  it seems.
