Henry,
The key to my statement lies in the "same pedal movement". Pressure is related to volume temperature and a constant related to the substance being compressed by PV = nRT. For the same stroke of the master cylinder piston, the pressure will be higher in a system with a smaller diameter tubing of the same length because the volume is smaller. Just like an open garden hose vs. one with a smaller opening, for the same volume of fluid, the pressure is higher.
No offense, but check your baloney meter
