If you want to think about it with miniatures, imagine the bases are round: radius 1 for a medium creature, 2 for a large, 3 for a huge etc. If you arrange six of any size creature around a medium base then they will only all be able to 'reach' that base (and attack) if their reach grows at the same rate as their size does (geometry!). A rule that diminishes the number of attackers as they grow larger is basically a rule that says reach doesn't grow linearly with creature size.</blockquote>
