I think that this is exactly why Michael made his suggestion. The
models representing a Collossus etc. are much smaller than they would be
if they were to scale. These superheavies are (supposed to be) so much larger than
the other superheavies that they should be distinguished from them by
classing them as Titans.
This is particularly important regarding the discussion of moral
checks for charging CERTAIN superheavies and titans, as it puts all
the vehicals requiring checks into one category.
 
Does this sound reasonable?
