What if by changing to AES-256 you end up saving one from the bus by
throwing all users under the train?

IIRC, I read (some years ago...) that AES-256 could be *weaker* than
AES-128 because some mathematical structures express some properties
only with the longer keys. I don't have the paper handy ATM, but I
vaguely remember that shocking conclusion.
