Mumetal --- magnetic interference --- compass calibration

While reviewing below arducopter wikis, I have a question to community:

will using mumetal (magentic shielding) make the copter more compact and compass safe?. will this help in reducing the distance between APM/PixHawk and the battery. Also, can external GPS mast be avoided by using mumetal?.
