A flattened 11th. makes a harmonious addition to a major chord, e.g. C 6 b11
Une 11ème., rendu grave, constitue un ajout harmonieux à un accord majeur, par ex. Do6 b11

Diminished eleventh is not less surprising than diminished fourth or major tenth 
If you look for Cb11, you may find Cb eleventh.
Eleventh is mostly used as perfect or augmented. Diminished must be very rare, and a Cxxx b11 will display F-flat, not E-natural.

Yes indeed, but the idea was that many people would not immediately recognise that an 11th. was simply the octave of a 4th., so that this ridiculous suggestion merely doubles the 3rd.
And when they had worked it out on their fingers, they would realise the significance of the date 
I have seen the suggested use of (for example) Cmb11 on YouTube, but it not my idea of harmony.
