With the proposed change, you get `user-init-file' and all site-lisp/
family, which is equivalent to a regular Emacs call.
Actually, by default, you only get `user-init-file'.

Correct.

If you specify a specific config file, which is what
`org-export-async-init-file' suggests, the load time will be decreased.

No, that's not possible. Emacsclient runs in the same process as the
server: this is not asynchronous anymore. To convince yourself, try
spawning two clients from the same server, run (sleep-for 30) in one of
them and switch to the other one.
