1.5-inch v. 1.75-inch belt width: Does extra 0.25-inch make a difference for CCWing?

I also carry with a Beltman 1.5" with no liner. Belt works excellent and is still comfortable enough to use as an every day belt. However, I carry an M&P340 so I can't attest to it's weight carrying ability since total loaded weight is just over 16oz. However, it is still a very stiff belt and don't see why you would need much more unless you carry an extremely heavy full size pistol.
