Yes. Thats how all regulators work.

That is the core element of my question. Would it restrict the flow, and cause the high pressure ford pump to start to build up in pressure, creating a possible leak situation, or potential damage to something?
No. There is nothing that can leak or be damaged by the factory 30psi operating pressure.
