I'm not a structural or mechanical engineer, but from my courses at the
beginner level in those disciplines 50+ years ago, it seems to me that
how much mast is needed within the tower depends on what is above the
tower on that mast, how long that mast is, and the wind loads.
If you're an ME and have done the calcs, I'll certainly defer to your
advice.

There is no structural advantage to more mast inside the tower beyond
3 ft or so. More doesn't matter either way.
