Bob,
I agree with DH - if the diaphragm were an involuntary muscle, we would not be able to interrupt or control the way we breathe. IMO better examples of an involuntary muscle are contractions of the heart or peristalsis in the digestive system.
I agree with you that the "breathe deep into your stomach, not your chest" instruction is not a good approach. It isn't necessary to know the anatomical details to figure this out, although they are interesting.
Regards,
Hans
