My thinking is that the stock brakes are 2-piston and the Brembo is 4-piston. Same number of pistons are being moved, just in a single caliper. So there's a need for slightly larger fluid volume, which the 11/16" M/C will provide, with a slight loss of pressure.
Internet consensus on swapping the master cylinder seems to be nearly evenly split. And since I have no problem being a guinea pig in this experiment....
