EXP II Dial

Why is the wording Rolex Oyster Perpetual smaller on the EXP II dial compared to all other sport models??

I'm guessing because they decided to cram "EXPLORER II" on the top portion, rather than the bottom, like other models (i.e. Submariner, GMT Master). I personally think the dial would be better balanced with EXPLORER II on the bottom portion.
