Meant x 12 lockdown points (vicey gwips) and or other engineered means to squish down a tapered lid edge against the vertical pot walls if that makes nutter MB sense?

@MB, in a word, NO.
Its not a pressure vessel. The design of the pot is too thin, the construction profile wrong for a pressure vessel, like a Retort, the top edge of the pot is not restrained by the lid - vice grips are not an option, especially if you were to use enough to seal the lid, it needs a vent, which I appreciate you have shown, but this will end in tears and most likely an injury. The potential for a lethal pressure build-up is very real and will happen very quickly. I doubt the pot would rupture, more the weakest link which is the lid to pot interface, probably with hot under pressure steam and waster, fats oils, all serious burns. Additionally, as the moisture drops because you are venting the pot, the steam out become harder to see, another problem.
I think if you want to do this in the field, find something that is made for the duty, plus, you need a totally regulated fuel source such as gas, not hot coals or briquettes. The Gwendolyn is designed as a venting vessel deliberately to get rid of the moisture so the pizza solidifies. Inversely, it has minimal venting when using the pot to ensure there is hot air release, but more importantly to retain the moisture so the dish does not dry out.
Pressure cookers are totally different demon to deal with. Used with a solid fuel I would want a very thick pot with domed llid, significant locking tabs and a double pressure relief system for the steam.
All I’m hearing here is negativity Plassy Mate!
If we can put a Man on Da Moon, Philstar can do this easily...somehow [emoji106][emoji106]
