Driven systems settle to the drive frequency, responding weakly, not their natural one

Evidence

The vocal folds are a high-impedance drive; their motion is almost unmodified by any feedback from the vocal tract. This fact is perhaps the seat of the source-filter confusion: if the drive (vocal folds) do not respond to feedback from the vocal tract, how can the latter be anything but a filter? The fallacy of this statement is the essence of resonance as discussed in many places in this book: passive amplification is possible, coaxing a drive that is anyway wasting most of its power to put out more power in certain frequency ranges, without actually changing anything the drive is otherwise doing. — Eric J. Heller, Why You Hear What You Hear- An…, 1677 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
