    Size in what unit? Biggest, largest smallest have no scientific meaning.

    My first impulse would have been to suggest that one of the dimensions H,W,or D would be larger than the corresponding dimension of the first object.

    And of course, gestalts are formed on previous experiences---we learn to judge in concepts.

    Of course, mine has always looked bigger than anybody else's.
