What people usually misjudge

That instinct misses the real contrast. This pair is more about footprint and spread than vertical reach, which is why the larger object can feel only slightly taller while still claiming much more space.
Shared category can hide the gap

The pairing works because it feels familiar
What makes this pairing useful is that both objects come from the same general world, so the contrast feels intuitive rather than exotic.
