I put an update in my original post, and I also (like you) timed
without the side effects I'd inserted (empty-string print statements).
Unlike your code, I'm using non-constant strings, which might explain
the difference.

I note:

The 1,000 string length comparisons take 0.184ms; the negative set
test takes 0.281ms; and the positive takes 0.77ms. The string length
check, then, is slightly faster, but if the length matches you still
have the set test to perform. Probably not worth the complexity.
