Well your crack pot theory ain't jackschitt. Among other things to consider is short action, lighter weight, more efficient burning of powder column, greater accuracy potential.
Lighter, shorter, handier, etc. is certainly where the true magic is.
I've done it both ways, short action medium short tube is where it's at for me. Can't for the life of me figure how a heavier 4" longer barrel, a longer action, and more recoil is "better". I've done it both ways so I'm certainly not forced to guess a comparison of a 20" carbine and it's resultant virtues as compared to a 24/26" magnum and it's "attributes". LOL
