Currently, the incoming phone cable terminates in a small junction box

thirty feet to the master socket. The phone and wired router are both
located on a desk very close to the master socket.

The builders doing some renovation work on the house have suggested
putting the master socket on the front wall and then running two cables
to the desk area. Is there any technical reason why that shouldn't be
done? Will the internet performance be affected if the router is further
from the master socket than it is at present?

Thanks.

As others have said, either arrangement will work perfectly well.

But what is their rationale for wanting to change it?
