let's not lose sight of the scale in this argument. If you are playing the 7b13
chord as the V7 of a minor chord you may chose to play the fifth mode of the
harmonic minor in which case the Eb on a G7 chord is a flatted 6th one half
step away from the fifth.

Although, I would add, this is really not recommend. Rhythm section
players *hate* to see Cb's, Fb's, E#'s and B#'s as the root of a chord
