They use the longer brace to increase strength. The NRCS did some strength studies on corners that I read a long time ago. If I remember correctly to maximize strength on a floating H brace with diagonal strainer wire the brace length was supposed to be 2.5 times the height of the fence IE: 4 ft tall fence needs a 10 ft brace 5 ft needs a 12.5 ft brace.
