I think the shafts in the king's chamber are actually so his soul could escape into the afterlife. They wanted to be sure that the king, as a living god, would make it to the afterlife. Hence, the shafts.
I have first hand experience of using the kings chamber to transport my soul to the sirian system. The design of the pyramid has the effect of amplifying the life force energy of the individual to the effect of not only allowing the ba and ka to part from the physical body but also of concentrating and focusing enough energy to transport the individual to the star system. The Cheops pyramid is NOT A TOMB but a teleportation device a stargate if you like. This was known by the builders and is the reason there are no inscriptions claiming ownership on it. The stone Sarcophagus did not house a body but was merely used as a platform for the pharaoh to lie on. Also it is not currently in the correct position either. There is another point which I like noted here and which might one day be discovered and that is that although the kings chamber appears blank there are actually writings in the kings chamber which appear when the frequency within the chamber reaches travel potency. Again as I recall these writings were there to aid and remind the pharaoh in his journey to the afterworld. I don't know how these special hieroglyphs were written and how they are only revealed just before the soul of the individual is transported to the star system but they are there nonetheless and you never know one day they might be discovered. As I recall the writings appeared golden in colour.
