The way it was explained to me was, think of it as blowing air through a straw (small A/R) verses blowing through a 3 inch diameter pipe (larger A/R).
When you blow through the straw, the velocity of the air coming out of the end of the straw will be quite high. However, the straw cannot handle larger amounts of airflow because of its small diameter.
If you were to blow through a 3 inch pipe though, the speed of the air coming out the other end would not be as high. The large diameter of the pipe means it can handle large amounts of airflow.
