the x and xx sizes do a relative scaling, so, in your case tfx is smaller
than tfb
add { } around the lines and you'll see them relative to the main body font;
tx tfx etc are mainly used in \cap and \high/\low situations and not meant
for general size switching (use \switchtobodyfont[small] for that)
