I think you've just nailed what Taylors are designed for, Wings. Fitting nicely into a mix without difficulty. Sadly this tends to make them a bit bland played in a solo context. I've only had to mix one Taylor with ES live but it sat in the mix nicely. At soundcheck it sounded thin and awful to me but once the bass and electric guitar joined in it all made sense.
