If Eric complains imagine what it is like for me. He is a tad bit larger
than me.

I would argue that the numbers definitely should NOT shrink. The OBRA
regulation size mirrors the USCF regulation size. At the current size the
are still hard to read on the camera at venues with wide finish lines like
PIR. If we were to shrink the number size I think we would have to
simultaneously have a rule that limited finish line width. This is the main
reason why they can get by with smaller numbers at Euro Pro races, they
limit the finish line width. Narrowing finish lines would not only be
technically difficult but would also present safety issues.

While talking about change, I still think those OBRA numbers need to shrink.

I believe more people could put them on correctly if they weren't too big.
