The confusion lies in what's behind the #'s of the stem designations. If you go back a little in this thread I think you'll find a related discussion.


EDIT: note how the stack (2nd #) is increasing much faster than the straightline measurement from pinch band center to effective bar center (1st #) in the three stems of your example. If you derive the reach by considering those #s to be one side and the hypotenuse of a right triangle, respectively, you'll see how those stem reaches actually decrease by roughly 10mm at a pop despite going "up" in size.
