Connection time and ORS

A simple question: Does connection time matter when calculating ORS for connections?

E.g. would

JFK - ORD - LAX with 2 hour connection time have better ORS than JFK - ORD - LAX with 7 hour connection time?

... given all other factors are the same (a/c, FA, service level, ac desirability, etc.)...

Simple question, complicate answer:

The time between two flights doesn't matter, the overall journey time (in this case from JFK to LAX) matters.

So if you have a flight via ORD with some 5 hours between the flights, you may have a better rating than via Bogota with only 1 miminum connection time

You made that "complicated" answer seem so simple!
