Maybe the case for your application but no matter what way you slice it, the pats system restricts the length of the top link. It's basic physics
Not to be argumentative, but the slide-in or weld-on Pat's leaves the tractor's 3PH geometry the same.
clee7020 may have already had a longer top link or at least one that could reach far enough. Besides, longer top links are cheap as are PTO extensions. It is the PTO shafts that seriously impact the budget.
