It all depends...How my box is designed and the size of the vent...there is a hell of a lot of air moving through it.
It's just because of the size of the port you can't really feel or hear the air/sound comming from the port unless you literally stick you head in the vent lol...its a cool feeling

why would it not work, like maybe if you were using only one port for the whole box?

Right, it's primarily space considerations.  With a divided box you need two ports, and each port has a structure that takes up airspace.  A divided box will use more gross space but will more than likely be the sturdiest build because of the dividing baffle.  But every car and situation is different, and there are times where there is no room for the extra cubic inches of the second port.  It's all about looking at how much space you have to work with and going from there.
Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
