I could just buy and fit the longer cage though, I don't need whole RD.
How much is your long cage RD?I think Wolftooth + short cage is a sexier look :)

Assuming the bodies of the SS and GS version don't have slightly different geometries in terms of sweep angle.

Longer cage won't allow a bigger range though. I found on a short cage, with 11-34 the chain went loose when on the small chainring and 11T if I left enough chain to be able to get onto big cog and 34T.

Up to 36t you will be fine, going by my experience. Anything above yeah you'd need it.
The only reason I am getting rid of the mech is I want a clutched one so there is no chainslap/drop in 1x.
