MaxTheRabbit is an unknown quantity at this point
A larger master cylinder piston is moving more fluid per unit of travel so it takes more force to move it. A larger diaphragm is holding more vacuum giving the atmosphere more surface area to assist. Unless I'm totally missing something here that would make the pedal easier to push because you've got more force being exerted by the atmosphere working in concert with your foot.
