Greater compliance: greater increase in vascular volume during an increase in pressure (e.g., elastic arteries)- Amboss.
I think it is vice verse. The more elastic tissue the harder it will be for us to change blood vessel diametr due to resistance.
Basically, the more rubber bands you add together, the harder they are to stretch apart—so you need a greater pressure force to stretch them open, this is why the compliance decreases with increasing elastance.
