Who will benefit from the new rod length in B.A.S.S.

What technique or pro is going to benefit the most from the new 10 ft rod length?
Flippers or swimbaits or finesse or what? What or will have the advantages? Aside from the boat manufactures having to sell new boats to everyone to have compartments big enough for the longer rods?
