3 way with differing impedence drivers


I'm thinking of designing a new 3 way speaker. A WMT, where the efficiency of the Woofer is 91 dB ,
the mid is 88 dB
Tweeter is 91dB
To get the Mid up to 91 dB I thought i could use 2 mid-range drivers. However this would mean that the mid section is 4 ohms and not 8.
Can sombody explain to me why this is not a good idea ?
What are the effects of doing this?

Thanks in advance guys
