With all things being equal, is there any reason to see an increase in black dot gain simply by changing the print sequence from CMYK to KCMY?
Yes! There is every reason to think that the absorption and spreading of the black ink would be very dependent on what ink (or lack thereof) has come before. It makes perfect sense that you would see more dot gain if black is printed first since the black ink might spread in the paper more than it would if there were already three ink layers down.
