If you suppress down the road, assuming it uses a longer qd mount, you could cut down to 13.7/14.0.
If you want to cut down, I wouldnt talk you out of it, but I would not suggest it if you are not 100% sure or have a dedicated muzzle device yet. The 1.5” isnt as big a deal without a silencer hanging off the end... and even then, its nice, but I doubt there will be noticeable performance gains.
Cutting down a 16” KAC upper would be a colossal pain due to URX4 to the muzzle. 14.5” upper is the way to go, if you intend to end up at that length anyway. I also would not recommend putting a can under a URX4. They get hot enough with just barrel under them.

But I think pinning is that stupid.
The price of pinning is like half what a stamp costs.
Pinning is fine, until the “gunsmith” you pay to do it swaps your peel washer for a crush washer, and you don’t notice right away. Or when you find yourself looking for the shortest barrel/longest muzzle device combo instead of using a 14.5” and a suppressor mount, or a 14.7” plus A2.
~14.5” SBR’s are great, indeed. I need to file for my 14” BRT/ 13” URX4 so it’ll have its own lower.
