For me, a longer sight radius brings with it a disadvantage . . .
As the front sight moves out farther away, it gets smaller; and thus, doesn't "fit" as well inside the rear notch. That extra "play" in the sight visual tends to allow my aim to drift around a little. My old eyes are probably a factor here too.
