What are the actual differences between the tele bridge pickups and strat bridge pickups (let's just say a comparison between standard fender ones as an example.) Are they wound differently, if so does this effect the sound? Is one stronger than the other? What actually differentiates them.

Prefacing this with i have no clue what im talking about- isn't the strat bridge wider? At least wider than its own neck and middle- it's also positioned at a more intense angle

And then iirc a big thing about the tele bridge is that the magnetic field gets messed with because of the metal plate that it typically gets set into?

Just off of those they got different positions and fields which will be more impactful than the winding right?

heres the diff briefly:

they are wound different
they are sized different
tele has a baseplate
tele is mounted to bridge
