This^ ....is not it!
Think about it. The cardboard occupies space inside the mag which diminishes the amount of space for both liquid and gas to occupy. This is ultimately going to decrease your maximum shots per fill.
Increased surface area to vaporize is dumb because liquid propane to a gas is almost instantaneous, for our purposes, as it doesn't want to remain a liquid. As you shoot, gas is released from the mag. As gas is released the internal pressure decreases which is condition required for liquid propane to vaporize.
