Some of the statements made are hardly correct: the Silver Ghost(1907 40/50 historic RAC 15,000 miles trial) outgoing filters were very small area, and often failed.

We shall now have a more perfect arrangement than we have ever had - i.e. free and convenient filler, and larger sump for dirt and water, and very large duplex outgoing filters, which are arranged for a 2 gallon reserve, and can in a moment be changed over if one of the 30 sq. in area filters are blocked.
