Somewhat easier to raise/lower; little less liable for need to adjust over time owing to wear on gibs. But, for a home shop, the amount of usage is so unlikely to cause an discernible wear imo it's no real difference in practical sense.

Length is good, too, as it helps immeasurably w/ longer pieces in how easily one can keep/get a true joint.
