I don't know in practice if it is better or worse, but a theoretical approach is that the choke difference becomes smaller since the venturi outer diameter is the same.  At the inlet it is unavailable with some turbulence that takes away some of the effect with the throat in the venturi especially at low air speed, that is one reason for the later 1" carbs has a much bigger inlet. As the 1" carb body that is used on our Scouts is small at the inlet, a bigger venturi can hurt the idle and low speed characteristics. But as I said before, I am not certain.

Later Scouts used a bigger 1-1/4" carbs or even 1-1/2" and bigger manifold so the motor can take that with good results, and those carbs had a bigger venturi as well, but the inlet/venturi choke difference is larger.
