My reasoning is pretty simple, you create significant, unnecessary pressure drop by having the cross-sectional area of the block significantly less than that of the barbs.
It seems to me that you would get much better flow rates with the larger channel. And, as this is laminar flow, it seems equivalent to some of the maze/spiral design blocks (i.e. laminar flow etc). Those blocks, looking at BillA's testing (specifically the GeminiCool Tsunami), benefit much from increased flow rate.

Well, why speculate. Next chance I get I'll make one with 4 channel pieces and give it a try.
