Shorter staples tend to be sharper. But different staple brands have different pitch tendencies too, so for example, a Pisoni 47mm staple could still be sharper than a Loree 46mm staple.

I personally like "sharper" staples because I hate reeds that are flat. I'd much rather have a reed that is slightly sharp, that I can afford to relax my embouchure on and play down to pitch. Playing down to pitch is a lot less energy consuming than playing up to pitch.
