I just didn't know how big the difference is and whether the extra cost is worth it.
Neither did we, because we don't know your extra cost. At the exit of your pull-out staircase, I don't see it making a significant difference, and for the storage space it's not the standing height there that matters, but the critical area is at the edge: at 22° DN a 50 cm height gain is reached 1.24 m from the edge, at 25° DN after 1.07 m – so only 17 cm earlier. That’s peanuts, the difference can only be cluttered up with a lot of sporty effort. I would see an added benefit at most where someone like treats themselves to a "proper" staircase to the attic – but for that, consider your stair location not suitable.
