But as I understand the difference would be most striking for long slurs, or
will all slurs look differently?

If the change is homogeneous and improving the look of _all_ slurs, regardless
of their length, I'd vote for the replacement and keeping the old switched on
by a command-line option/global flag (like those used in the first lines of
M-Tx texts, not sure which of them related to PMX :-). I have a special intent
to vote for the old syntax with the new slurs because I'm a user of M-Tx :-).
