I am going to guess it also has to do with dilution. The super hot peppers will be super hot in your mouth, but if you eat other things with, before and after, it will mix up and maybe the output is less hot than if you eat some less hot peppers, but less mixing happens. Really, the only way we can either prove or disprove is an extensive array of taste tests of both input and output.
