Yeah, bigger brakes allow you a broader range of brake pressure to find the point of maximum braking power. Small discs are more "all on" or "all off".

It's about brake control, rather than the ability to lock up the tires on dry pavement.

I agree though that if you can't lock up the brakes, then the brakes are insufficient. For example, a standard 1200 with 4 wheel drum brakes, when carrying a load.
