Per 2-J-1 "The longer the SHOT", not "The longer the CLUB".
For most of you, including annikan, jim, lagster - you already know that. You were saying longer club and assuming that you are talking about a longer shot. Although a longer club doesn't always mean a longer shot. However for anyone new or learning- the clarification could help them. For those new to TGM the next question is " Why more open the longer the shot?" Because as again, most know by now- the more compression, the more distance the clubhead travels and the more the face closes while the ball is on the face.
Now the real question is- if on the longer shots the face closes enough while the ball is on the face- to make alterations in the amount the clubface is open at impact fix for horizontal hinging, then how long of a distance is the ball traveling on the clubface/clubhead? And how does that integrate with the Golfing Machine concept that the ball always leaves at right angles to the clubface- i.e. that the return flow is so fast that the ball doesn't ride on the clubhead/face long enough for the down and out vector of the clubhead to influence the initial direction of the ball?
