However, there is a sea-state where the swells (waves) are very sharp, almost vertical, and far enough apart where a DE's hull won't rise to meet the swell.

Yeah, the armonics of the waves is hugely important in what you actually "feel" on the boat. I myself have been mainly on small sailboats, but in my experience those pesky small and hard waves that hit against your bow and continuously brake your ship produce a much bigger effect than the heavier and larger roll waves that move your boat smoother up and down coming from behind or 3/4 behind
