Didn't want to play the words game, so I said "about" 20%
 
Some argue that 40mm is 80% of 50mm making a 20% "difference".
(I believe this is correct math.)
 
Some argue that 50mm is 25% larger than 40mm making it 75% of the  size.
(Advertisers say 25% "bigger/larger" than a 40mm tube)
 
A play on words  difference vs bigger/larger.
 
Since this argument goes on a lot, I said "about" 20%.  I didn't want  to 
take a pole or offer an average of 
"about" 22.5% to make more happy with  an average.
 
In any case, the Z568 is worth (or simply sold for) a lot more than an  
IN-18 at about 22.5% bigger in size for "about" four times the cost.  No  
doubt, a beautiful set of tubes.
 
Congrats to the new owner and the seller.  Would like to own the clock  it 
goes in (assuming a clock of course).

Even by those numbers, the Z568 digit is 25% larger than the  IN-18.
Not 20%.
