All makes sense but in reality I won't have two different frames depending on if I think any steep hills are going to be wet or dry. The question is does a frame with a 15mm longer chain-stay length make may difference when actually riding it and not just talking about the theory?
I would just compensate by moving body position around (as I do already) and it is my expectation I wouldn't even notice after a few rides.

It's easier to move your body forward to prevent tilting back than to move back to get more grip, just bend your arms.
Steering sensations are a bit shit though, you feel a bit disconnected from the front end. especially since I had 120mm travel forks, increasing the trail.
sorry for contributing to the derail
