...but to be able to depress the nipple so easily seems a little problematic....
Sure, I understand.

I don't know why I even try to explain the thinking behind the way it was done since, to be honest, I never knew it was not the recommended flow direction from Swage-Lok until recently.

It was 8 years ago when I was taught that way (i.e. my first Rebreather), and a good DIR-wannabe doesn't question if it was "doing it right"...
