But using the water analogy can also be a bad thing, I mean, what if Nanoha's body is not a hose, but a dam.

I'm sure every one of us has built sand dams once, to stop a river from flowing or the like. At first it's easy, but the closer you come to closing it, the denser the flow of the water (magical energy) becomes, and the easier the dam (Nanoha's body) breaks.

So concentrating more energy in a round might actually lead to dangerous effects if taken to a certain level. It's possible that Divine Buster (which, let's face it, is not a punch with a pillow) is as far as she can stress that much energy in one blast. That would then also why Starlight Breaker is bigger, because it's more energy, and thus needs a bigger 'gap in the dam' to prevent it from damaging Nanoha's body more then it does already.
