Results on collisions of $^{16}$O nuclei performed at the Relativistic HeavyIon Collider (RHIC) have been presented for the first time at Quark Matter 2023by the STAR collaboration. $^{16}$O+$^{16}$O collisions are also expected totake place in the near future at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at much higherbeam energies. We explore the potential of beam-energy-dependent studies forthis system to probe small-$x$ dynamics and QCD evolution. We perform 3+1DIP-Glasma simulations to predict the rapidity dependence of the initialgeometry of light-ion collisions, focusing on $^{16}$O+$^{16}$O and$^{20}$Ne+$^{20}$Ne collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 70$ GeV and 7 TeV. Thechoice of $^{20}$Ne is motivated by its strongly elongated geometry, which mayrespond differently to the effect of the high-energy evolution compared to themore spherical $^{16}$O. We find that smearing induced by soft gluon productionat high energy causes mild variations in the initial-state eccentricities as afunction of the collision energy. These effects could be resolved in futureexperiments and deserve further investigation.
