i think with synth filters, there's more freedom. they're allowed to have tons of character. eq's are usually general purpose. i think an eq based on ms20-style filters (if possible at all), would probably puzzle everybody and not sell well.
but it seems some developers are now starting to take this road. airwindows and ddmf come to mind.
