The power companies already do twist their HV transmission lines. Check 
it out as you are a passenger in a car on a highway that parallels a 
three phase power transmission line. If it is one of the smaller 
transmission lines that uses utility poles, you will see that the three 
wires (ignore the ground wire) may be arranged in a vertical line for 
some distance. Then they will transition to a triangle, and eventually 
back to a vertical line again. If you pay close attention you will see 
that a different wire ends up on top than before.
