It becomes more critical the longer the gas tube becomes, because cheaper gas tubes will warp with heating and start clipping the carrier key, causing accuracy and eventual reliability problems.
There's good reason why the Mil-Std TDP calls for what it does, but AA took it a step further with their gas tubes and the entire manufacturing process for them.
I personally recommend getting a Melonited gas tube if you don't have an AA, especially on a rifle-length system.
