Correct. As you get closer, the more loft you get and the less horizontal shift there is, but you probably never get to a perfect vertical free-fall, except in extreme altitude drops. So a 9i-PW is maybe 15 ft of vertical difference, and PW-SW is maybe 7 ft. (All guesses).

Yes...more roll will happen, but not too much more.
