Cartridge shape vs barrel life.

Ok, so the "new" philosophy is for "short, fat" cartridges vs the long, skinny cartridges. Powder is supposed to burn better, shorter stiffer actions.

The question I have is....

Has anyone really taken notice of whether or not the typical barrel life has shortened with these shorter, fatter cartridges? (powder capacity being similar to a longer, skinnier cartridge).

Your thoughts???
