Same principle with long vs. short tenons - more contact will mean a more stable joint.

The joint is glued together so it will be stable. I do understand your point you are trying to make, but I don't believe its necessarliy going to make a long neck tenon guitar better than a short neck tenon guitar. Like I said if the neck is stable the size of neck tenon won't matter.
