At a high level of play, this definitely matters. For most FRC teams, hitting a target that small from that distance with any kind of consistency will be a serious challenge, and far too many teams will spend far too much time failing at it, rather than designing around the low goal.

(In my experience, extrapolated to this season. I'll be delighted to be wrong.)
