I always thought it was the opposite.
I prefer shorter offset forks in slow speed tech. There is a lot going on with changing offset...as well as changing the front end steering geo you are affecting the WB, weight balance, etc... So I don't think there is an easy one sentence description of how your bike will perform with different offset forks that applies to all riders and all bikes equally. On the other side of the coin I don't think the change is so dramatic you'd love one and hate the other. Humans adapt to stuff like how their bikes handle after a few rides. So if you are unsure just go with whatever seems like the right answer based on the info/experience you have.
