I'm saying in this particular example it's not noticeable. You're moving the caliper out bit less than a half-inch; the pistons are larger but I suspect once you factor in the fluid displacement-per-unit-distance-of-pedal-stroke, that change is negligible as well.

Pad composition is going to make a much bigger difference than anything else. And it seems like increasing friction characteristics works in direct oppostion to cleanliness!
