Could you do the same steps as listed above except use a siphon to get out all the fluid from the reservoir, refill with fresh fluid, turn lock to lock, siphon and repeat?

Won't work. You only got about 8oz tops from the pump. There is about 32 ounces in the gear box. So since you working on dillution then you need to increase the change amount to nearly 2 gallons . Most people I catch do this don't get the debris out of system as you would flushing...

Kind of like doing a oil change by unscrewing the filter and dumping it out. Screw it back on and refilling a quart. It won't work. Then repeating...

Open differentials you'll clearly see the spider gears in the center of the carrier. Limited Slip you see a enclosed clutch pack.

I'm only pointing out that the second differential picture is not a LS unit but looks like a lunch box locker was installed.  A limited slip carrier will still look very similar to an open carrier, with the differences being that you can clearly see the "S" spring up against the spider gears, and the clutch packs on the outer insides of the carrier.
