Interesting theory. Assuming the "rule" is that the diagonal bisects the rear triangle, maybe larger frames move the midpoint of the seat tube up to the point where it aligns the top tube. The bike has 650B wheels, so the biggest it could be is a 58. If only there was some way we could ask the designer of the frame? :)
