...and delivers through the same nozzles as is fed from the main jets. Don't confuse the man with partial facts that mean nothing to his question.

If we are talking about a Holley 94, you are wrong. The accelerator pump discharges through a "squirter" located between the 2 venturi. The main jets discharge through the two nozzles located in the middle of each venturi. The two systems are totally separate. I think you are causing the confusion.

Here's a diagram.

Correct. The Stromberg carbs discharge the pump shot out of the "J" nozzles, which also discharge fuel when the power valve opens.

Ford/Holley 94 type carbs have an independent accel pump circuit that gets the fuel supply from a hole in the bowl, and not the main jets.
