Check your other thread...

Using a larger-bore master cylinder would require more force pushing the pedal to do the same thing.

Stopping distance or braking power comes from the brakes at the wheel, & how well-balanced the braking power is among the 4 wheels. But most importantly from the contact between tire & road. The amount of muscle required to push the pedal is a different question altogether.
