It does create additional pressure. I think the real question is if that pressure is in any way detectable. Think aeropress vs. French press. The pushing in a french press simple separates the particles, while the aeropress is indeed squeezing the water through the filter.

Maybe the pressure isn't directly having an effect. But a side effect is that you stop the brew process after a short period of time and that will have an effect on taste.
