You are assuming it has been shown that eating a little bit of soy or bean on a regular basis decrease gas production in everyone. While this assumption may apply to many people it does apply to everyone.

You might find this relevant and humorous article on Soy Carbohydrates: The Flatulence Factor interesting. It discusses the incredible lengths the soy industry goes to trying to cure the problem of soy and flatulence.

Slowly increasing the dose of acacia or other fiber supplements to reduce gas and bloating by letting the colonic flora adjust to a new food source is based on the same principle as eating small regular amounts of soy or beans. While this approach with fiber supplements works for many people it can be seen from many postings on the board this approach does not work for everyone. One reason it does work is the wide variation in the gut flora composition from individual to individual and the way different flora compositions ferment different sugars and fibers.

The thing we know for certain is that foods that produce gas for one person may not produce gas for another person.
