An interesting theory. I'm pretty sure it's wrong, but there's an easy test for it - while standing still with the engine on, depress the clutch pedal. Move the gear lever through the lower gears.
Then rev the engine to high RPM and move the gear lever again. If your theory is correct, there should be a noticeable difference in the movement of the lever. I'll try it out the next time I'm driving.
