GPU block "You can use any opening as an inlet/outlet port."

I'm redesigning my loop and from a practical perspective it would be useful if I could use the two left hand ports (top and bottom) for the in/out. Currently I have top left and bottom right connected and I understand how it works. The water comes in, has nowhere else to go but flow around the block and then leave on the opposite port. But the manual says "You can use any opening as an inlet/outlet port." is that really true or does it mean any left and any right?

I have seen parallel loops where all four ports are connected and that made me think it should work but I can't get my head around it.

You can see through the opening at the top to the opening at the bottom, it is just a hole! Wouldn't the water just flow in then out without moving around the block? Intuitively I'd think some water will collect in the block but most water coming in just immediately flow out? If so how do parallel loops where all four are connected work?

I am probably missing something obvious!
