I think the argument was that it's more 'turbulant' straight from the pump. I'd use the shortest tube lenght possible between pump and block, connect it straight on if possible...

I'd of thought the flow would be equal everywhere but pressure would be lost after/due~to each restriction on route?, thereby the pressure would be greater at the block with a pump>CPU arrangment. water pressure helps cooling no?, more impingement?...
