One trick that I stumbled on by accident:

If you place an ORTF pair *behind* the choir, facing them, you'll get a nice version of what they're doing without any trace of sibillance--this can be a real life-saver when all the mics infront of them are shrizzly with sibillance, mixing in some of the "muffled" back-of-the-choir mics can balance it out.

But maybe this only works in a stumbly, accidental situation.
