No, there can be occasions where the re-declaring of runways distances can have an adverse affect of performance figures even where the distances increase. I know of an airport, which I will not name but it wasn't Luton, where an increase in the TORA put an obstacle in the take off climb profile. Just goes to prove size isn't everything.
