Also as a woodworker. For dust collection, I've always been told to avoid 90 bends and do two 45s. It's really cool to see that visualized

Yeah, I've finally gotten everything I need for dust collection except the bends/Y's and this was enlightening.

Would the viscosity of water make an appreciable difference here, such as needing a longer bend to get the same efficiency gains?
