OK, something that has always been on my mind with the 2-port fuel pump from the later cars (and is a popular replacement/upgrade to the older cars after an NLA 3-port pump dies).

Why is the input on the 2-port pump (Example: Bosch 69133 Electric Pump) done as 1/2"? Is there some reason it couldn't be the same as the feed coming from the tank itself (9.5mm)?
