Funny you should mention the flat orientation. When me and one of the 2 DMs did an exploration orientation swim along the bottom I did notice some easier breathing. For about 15 minutes we cruised the bottom and that would have been great if I was there for recreation.
I was the last one holding onto the yellow horizontal line in the upright position when we did the shared air exercise. Seemed like forever waiting with silt stirred up and bubbles everywhere. Kind of disorienting with low visibility.
I knew my turn would come eventually so panic never came to mind. And I waisted no time getting the octo into my mouth and purged with a hard blow.

I am sure That some of the breathing may have been your wetsuit, but do not forget your reg will also breath different according to your orientation. If you are straight up and down doing skills and drills it will breath harder than when you are in proper trim, flat. It will also breath MUCH easier if your head is below your lungs as in going down an incline. Just food for thought.
