No, and that's the point: *Without* the pre-warp the BLT
is correct at *one* frequency. *With* the pre-warp,
it is correct at *two* frequencies; the pass-band and
stop-band corner frequencies.

The BLT is substantially correct at _all_ frequencies well below the
sampling frequency. Warping becomes more severe as fs/2 is approached.

Prewarping accounts for this by computing where the band edges of the
s-plane filter need to be in order to place them properly after bilinear
transformation. You can correct as many frequencies as you have degrees
of freedom in the design.

Right. The *two* band edges.

Wrong. The reason why the pre-warp / BLT combo works, is that
the filter designs where they are relevant, are dominated by
the bandwidth of the transition band.

I don't understand that. In any case, the warping itself sharpens
transitions

Be careful about such statements.
This is false friend to look for simple similarities.
