I doubt you will ever see any loss of strength by using the wider

Since I use a Multi-Router for floating tenon joiner and I make all my
tenons myself, begs a question:

If the need arose is there any reason you can't cut a wider mortise with
the domino (say one and a half or two passes) and make your own tenons?


No, I have cut wider slots but not for wider tenons. I cut wider slots for
screws to slide in.
