I think it does have to do with bandwidth, in the sense that if you have
a very wide filter (500 Hz or more) tuning off to one side will not
reduce the interfering signal at all.
But you're right about shape being important too. That affects how far
off you would tune and how quickly the interfering signal drops off.
