Default Is transpiration assisted by movement?

I thought I was the first with this
hypothesis.

Do you have trees where you are?
There're big plants as tall as a house and
they have leaves, and birds sit in them.
Would you like a picture?

I was looking at a tree last night and I
couldn't help noticing that it was always
moving because of the wind.
Perhaps this constant moving assists the
transpiration stream to attain great
heights due to some pumping motion.
