Well it kinda depends on what type/size of work you are going to perform and what size and variation in tool length that work is going to require. Obviously 15" is preferrable to 10" but then 20" is preferrable to 15". How well can you define the type of work you will perform and how much money do you want to spend on flexibility?
Sorry but I think it's a bit of no brainer type question.

If you built a CNC Mill that had 10" of Z Axis Travel, would that be a bad thing as far as for changing Tooling?
