1m vs 2m usb-c to lighting cable speed charge

I purchased 2m usb-c to lighting cable at Apple store because it was only one in stock but after purchase I looked at website and saw Apple offers cheaper 1m cable. I have it paired with my Apple 87W usb-c adapter. Does the shorter cable charges faster?


I did some measurement with Ampere app:

1m regular usb-a to lighting cable that comes with iPad connected to usb power source with output 5V 2.4A gets score of 3382


2m usb-c to lighting using Apple 87W adapter gets me score of 5073
