The best indicator of the texture rescale is in the symbol on the skirt.
I can't see any real benefit.
Also ideas around the witch staff are based around extrusion to give it some bulk instead of the slimmer mass it is at the moment.
Witch staff will take some time as I pick up the skills again, as I just spent a couple of hours of mistakes trying to get the texture resize to work, picking up the rsh and wtp setups again.
But for now...
Looks nice.
