I think you are missing the point.

You raise or lower the target level to select the best filters to get the subwoofer SHAPE the way you want it with minimal EQ. Once the sub shape is as desired it is a simple matter to adjust the output level on the receiver, EQ, or the sub's amp to set the output level relative to the mains.
How is that different than creating a house curve manually. In my case, I had the target curve set to 75dB, but added a house curve that deviated from the original. There is a linear 8dB increase (on the log chart) from 60Hz to 30Hz. It then stays flat at 30Hz below that. I've created the shape that I wanted while only using 5 filters. Isn't that the point?

Edit: I forgot to put in a new graph I did last night. It's a little different than the one above. I also moved the seating position back to try and alter the low end and trough at 44 Hz. It did a pretty good job at both:
