It might be interesting for you to know that during normal diving, I dump by the dump valve at the bottom of the wing instead by the inflator.

What did you say again about air doesn't get accumulate at the bottom ?

So the action of adding O2 from that area would be virtually identical to you dumping gas from the wing. As far as not accumulating in the bottom, there is no "bottom" to get in the way since it's U shaped. Can't accumulate air there if there is no bladder.

No bladder at the bottom of the wing ?

Which wing are you using ?

Except for the Oxycheq and Dive-Rite wings, most wings extend past the case of both of the KISS units. So if you have any air in the wing, it will float up past the case.

Anyway, I think we are

and going

You're absolutely right on the last part, but just to finish out the thread, I'm using a Dive Rite Classic wing but also use my own frame that raises the unit so it's not a problem. Anyway, thanks for a lively conversation on a boring day at work.
