suppose its is best to say the PMO regulator has less end of line restriction than the stock CIS system and therefore has less pressure to the carbs.

I had the same discussion with Vin several years ago about this same topic. I gave up convincing him about his flawed understanding how a pump works. His logic is flawed and I let it go unchallenged because he gave me something (gift). I feel some disappointment about his failure to grasp and understand his strong conviction about a PMO regulator raising the pressure.
Here is an example: If you connect a typical CIS fuel pump directly to a carb system, the flow rate or pressure would be too high for carb system to work. So people install a device called
REGULATOR. The regulator does its job by
reducing the existing fuel pressure not increase because it was already too
HIGH to begin with.
