Saves me having to make that point. :-)
Cat5 cable will support 100 and 1000 Mbps speed at line lengths ranging from 1/2 metre to 100 metre. Extending the wiring for the master socket will add to the line length between the cabinet and the router which can impact maximum line speed to a greater or lesser degree[1].
Unless there's a significant saving in upheaval gained by relocating the master socket, the better option will be to install extra cat5 cable rather than move the BT master socket.
[1] Unless the extra line length being introduced is no more than about 10 metres or so, the additional line loss may shave a few percent off the line speed. However, routing the line wiring those extra few metres within the premises is likely to increase its exposure to sources of QRM within the home which could have an even greater impact than the effect of additional line loss.
