Yes, there is indeed a balance to be struck between length and
descriptiveness. I suppose my remark was an "all else being equal"
one.
I say: designing URLs is a trade-off between principles such as
length, meaningfulnes, rememberability, typability and hackability;
persistence stands alone in that it should not be compromised.
