Searched around and read alrund the forums and been reading mixed results (probably with a mix of older articles and new articles)

Assuming you do a "safe amount " (so nothing ridiculous like 10cm+) and you heal normally along with rehab going well, do you really lose much functionality at all?

Also i don't even understand why LL (other than the painful procedure and maybe recovery time) would cause people to have problems with athletic functions. Athletic people have to adapt to more difficult tasks as they progress, so wouldn't a increase in leg length just be another task to adapt to? As we grew up as kids we also had to adapt to our changing bodies and I don't necessarily recall any moments where I thought "Oh golly gee my legs are much too long/too short for me right now". Maybe with an increase of 8cm and at an older age it might take longer to adapt/feel comfortable, but even then isn't that what rehab helps with?
