I think it’s a really hard thing to measure by feel. You’d probably need to have two sets of wheels where the only difference is the hub flange height, same tires, rims, and spokes. Then you might be able to tell a difference on a perfect day with the moon just right for maximum placebo effect. Maybe.
The two sets of wheels I have with different flange record hubs ride different, but I chalk that up to tubulars vs clinchers.
