indeed, the original proposal had no mention of "size"

This is only the tip of the iceberg. In fact, pretty much all advertising-related pages have undergone broad changes compared to what was originally proposed. A while ago, I raised the issue here:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User_talk:Barnes38

You can see I didn't really follow up on the topic as much as I should have. Ultimately, I was simply feeling overwhelmed by the scope of the edits that I would have to discuss and clean up. Advertising tagging, and editing the wiki, are after all a very small part of what I do in OSM. When the other party makes that their main focus, it just seems daunting.

I still think the right way to deal with this would be to restore the documentation to its original state, and break the changes down into proposals that we can then argue about based on their merits. (And as such, I welcome the effort to submit the message to the proposal process!)
