It's more than the diameter, it's that they actually mate - and well.

Is it any surprise that a 50-ohm connector that shares a designer also
shares some dimensions?

The dimensions of the connector are determined by the characteristic impedance of the line. The impedance of the line is a function of the ratio of the inner diameter of the outer conductor and the outer diameter of the inner conductor. Therefore the size and shape of the connecter is dictated by the laws of physics.
