The rated impedance of the drivers is not the only possible difference between the current tweeter and whatever you replace it with. There could be differences in sensitivity, requiring difference amounts of padding in the crossover, differences in tolerated crossover points (if for example the current tweeter is crossed over lower than the new one should be) and other places as well.
Add to that the possible need to allow for cone breakup, notching unwanted spikes, BSC and a custom a built zobel for each driver.
