Yeah thats what I was thinking too. Especially when playing on someone elses piano after you get used to that one. But sometimes when your having to roll chords it gets really frustrating. I have small hands, I can barely reach a tenth if I really stretch so a 15/16 size I think would help add another key to my reach and still be easily playable to others.. imo

Here they talk about adapting to the size in the second video:
