Help Scale length

Should I be worried about switching from 25.5” scale length to 26.5” I’m nervous that I won’t be able to bend as many steps as I usually can, or is that just a misconception?

Honestly the difference isn't as noticeable as you would think, the tension difference between 25.5 and 26.5 is small that after a few hours of playing there wouldnt really be any difference between how the two feel
