Why should they go there when it is easier to avoid all that high pressure nonsense and take the easy way and go around? The molecules in the pressureized zone are trying just as hard to go back through the fan blades the way they came in as they are trying to get through the radiator fins...that's why it is called pressure.
same thing will happen if you have a vacuum. the high pressure behind the fan will try to force air back through the blades while you are waiting for air to be drawn through.

that why super chargers work much better when placed before the cylinders, and not after
