NEGATIVE REDUCTION

Since you generally make a print slightly dark when intending to sepia tone because there is some image loss in the bleaching/redevelopment process, can the same logic be applied to overly dense negatives? In other words, will bleaching a dense negative in sepia part A bleach then redeveloping in part B produce a more printable negative? Or should the redevelopment be done in a film developer?
