I mean it makes sense if the rider weight is heavier then a bigger tire is better suited. I shake my head when I see a skinny person 120lbs riding 25s or even 28s pumped up to 100psi or more.
Anyway I’m just throwing up a discussion about what is the common sense on tire size vs riders’s weighs.

Width, weight and pressure. There's a relationship there, and a 120 lb person riding 28mm tires inflated to 100psi is running them way too hard. Even a 200 lb person usually doesn't need 100 psi in a 28mm tire.
