The length of the torque arm matters, because it directly affects the antisquat of a vehicle. A shorter torque arm increases the antisquat which provides more bite during acceleration, but for a road race suspension it's possible to have too much antisquat which can lead to rear brake hop under threshold braking. It's a fine balance, but in general a torque arm suspension allows a significant amount of antisquat to be designed into the suspension while still maintaining good roll steer characteristics.
