Guitar Scale Length Comparison : Short Scale vs Long Scale 000/OM

Is there any discernible difference between a short and long scale guitar with the same body shape and woods?
I dunno. You tell me!
Comparing a Martin 000-28 and a Martin OM-28, both guitars are brand new 2020 production.
The 000 has a "short" 24.9" scale length, and the OM has a "long" 25.5" scale length.
For those wondering what the heck scale length is, it is the distance between the saddle and the nut.

000-28
Strumming 0:01 Flatpicking 3:09 Fingerpicking 6:04
OM-28
Strumming 1:36 Flatpicking 4:50 Fingerpicking 7:24

Like always, I'm not making a statement here. It's just for fun.
