Or for high pressure inside the Suit for moment during EVA the Crew has to reduce the internal pressure of suit to 5 or 3.7 Psi In order to keep flexibility of the suit the Hard shell Space suit can operate a normal pressure 14.7 Psi with out becoming a stiff balloon like soft space suits.
Yes, that's a good call. I've seen one-atmosphere spacesuit designs that looked like this.
Does raise the question of how the other suits work. I don't think I've ever seen fictional astronauts prebreathe oxygen to decompress apart from _Rocket Girls._
