"Lee Morgan demonstrates the same thing with the air, there's not more air it's just faster"

That's not what I'm saying.

What I'm saying is that, when Lee demonstrates the tone he produces in the "eeee" position, he uses too much air. For the given note and dynamic he is simply blowing too much air into the instrument. This has the effect of making the sound thin and forced. Perhaps it's exactly because the air has been speeded up that he should be using less of it.
