Also, my thought is that the pressure may add some strength and a little protection to the line.
My ideas, and I could be wrong to do it this way.

As long as the air pressure is low enough it shouldn't be an issue. Only thing I can think of is if a small air leak develops it could erode a seal enough to leak when water is applied. Gas leaks easier than liquids. I'm probably overthinking this though. Can't lose my engineers thought process
