It's more like there is no path for sound to get to the back of the
membrane. Since all the sound has to come to the membrane by one path
you don't get the phase cancellations that are what make a mic directional.

I've wondered at times if any of them try sound deadening material
instead of a closed volume. The membrane would vibrate more freely if
it's not working against a sealed space.
