Short vs. long papers

I'm confused about short vs. long papers. I suppose a publication in a given venue is a publication in a given venue, but are long papers more prestigious than short papers?

This varies a lot. It seems like in typical conferences, it's 4 vs. 8 pages. For RANLP, it's 7 vs 8 pages, so when I had a paper accepted as a short paper, I just had to shorten it a page. For IWPT, it's 4 vs 10! A 6-page difference?

I wish I had a wide readership I could query about their thoughts on this...
