Sorry, had to laugh. I, like, most engineers I work with have a saying that follows when someone says "I think". It goes something like "Liar, Ignorant or too kind". Don't take it personal. Sometimes the math proves the assumption wrong.
Sorry the analogy did not help you, but be assured, the mathematical models I have run accounting for all relevant variables, both as a consultant for, and in doing my own product design on gasses from gunpowder and solid rocket propellants have clearly shown that form factor does impact pressures, and constriction of flow most definitely increases pressure. If I had made a mistake on a few of them, it would have made national news.
