I'm not exactly how to apply *reduced* pressure to this spell,

With respect to reduced pressure, I was thinking near vacuum.
The only way Mt. Everest is near vacuum is that it's 10,000+ feet
high. *Physically* nearer vacuum, not vacuum *conditions*. You don't
need a "pressure suit" to keep your insides in like you would for
vacuum.
Sorry, I meant near vacuum as in orbit, the lunar surface or outer
space. I never said anything about Mt. Everest. Space is only *mostly*
empty.
In any case, you've thought through that case already which is all I
was wondering about.
