I am not saying it does or does not make an appreciable difference, but think about what your question was about. "the natural leaching/curing processes" Cannabis plants have a singular purpose, to make seeds so the species survives. Nothing it naturally does at the end of it's life is to enhance it's flavor or it's high.
I understand what you meant. That between harvesting plants and the end of a curing period a process occurs and altering certain things, as in when trimming is performed, could alter that process. But it wouldn't really be a natural process being altered since by the time a plant in the wild would be to a point to do that it would simply be dieing and not putting any 'effort' into doing anything to alter or better itself.
