I went with a "shorter" 4.125" stroke, along with other light weight stuff, for a "revvier" engine, because that's fun to do (not for any hardcore racing). My builder said doing that was smart, Brent says doing that is dumb, Barry R. says doing that can be smart, Keith C. says doing that is just dumb. That's the summary. Pick the engine builder you want to side with.
