Nope - staggered pistons (larger one on the bottom for a front mounted caliper) keep the pads from tapering when you use them hard. They can lead to slightly reverse taper if you never get on the brakes hard, so don't be with your braking.

Staggered piston sizes are good at the track though, definitely help with pad taper.
