I doubt that the hose would collapse, the dust collector just doesn't
have
that kind of static pressure.

Less than a VC.

Considerably less.


It may cause the dust collectors motor and
blower to overspeed with the lack of air but I don't know what if any
harm
would come from that.

Highly unlikely. Most of them are synchronous, and will simply rotate
at no load speed (1750-3500 RPM)

You are correct, induction motors run at a given speed. I stand corrected
here.
