let-off

In setting let-off in heavily played pianos, is it beneficial to set let-off
a little further away from the string than normal to reduce hammer wear?
I've got a couple of new Yamaha C2's in dance studio environments and I want
the hammers to last a long time.  (In fact, I've had let-off set just
slightly low and my plan seems to be working.)

thanks,
G. Voltaggio
