Nor do I think the boxer comparison is really apt, since what they're doing is getting the welterweight to qualify in the middleweight class by upping his body fat.

You do have a welterweight.
It's called the Honda Fit.
Going back to the Civic-Accord comparison:
1997 Civic:
89.9 cu.ft passenger volume,
0-60 mph: 10.8s
2017 Fit:
95.7 cu.ft passenger volume,
0-60 mph: 10.2s
Now, won't argue as to which is prettier... however...
New cars are big because people want big. But you can still buy small cars if you really want to.
You just can't buy them with the same nameplates.
