Does the amount of consumed ATB matter for abilities that consume the entire ATB gauge?

Does the amount of consumed ATB matter for abilities that consume the entire ATB gauge? - Woman With Pink Lipstick and Black Mascara

In Final Fantasy 7 Remake, some of Barret's abilities have a unique usage that differs from most abilities. These abilities are

  • Focused Shot
  • Maximum Fury
  • Point Blank

The difference in these abilities is that the descriptions state they "consume all ATB". Every other ability requires a blanket 1 or 2 ATB gauges in order to perform. The abilities above can be used as long as there is at least 1 ATB gauge filled.

If I were to execute these abilities, is there any difference in the damage output between consuming 1 ATB gauge or 2 ATB gauges? If so, would using Refocus have any effect (given that Refocus splits the ATB gauge into 3 segments, but the total ATB amount is the same)?
