If this recording is panned to say the Left, it will be just that single speaker broadcasting this blast. This will be easily detected by both ear and skin at the left side of the body.
Jens you have advocated in this thread that ME's should Make Mono at LF. This would be contra the artists intentions, is audible and detectable by feel. Both the blast and panning are also audible and headphones. I am presenting the reasons why it is an erroneous suggestion. I would strongly suggest we do not do LF Management and burn it into the Mix or Master.
I agree it is not exactly on Topic, but as you introduced it, I thought it best to counter the notion.

Ehmm ... ok ...
So now you're talking about cone travel (positive or negative) as if it was the same as directivity ... ?
And no; unless a very special speaker (dipole or cardioid, not very common in a studio setting), a 50 Hz wave (half or full period doesn't matter) will not be directional at all.
If you want to continue to make such claims; please back it up by some valid papers.
