But the shell is emerging from the tube, so surely its acceleration
phase is over and it is now moving as fast as it ever will, and
gravity will now be slowing it down again.

Stand firm for what you believe in, until and unless logic and experience
prove you wrong.  Remember: when the emperor looks naked, the emperor *is*
naked, the truth and a lie are not "sort-of the same thing" and there is
no aspect, no facet, no moment of life that can't be improved with pizza.
