Assuming that the minimum size of the flyback needs to scale with the size
of the tube (and I'm not certain that it does, from empirical observations),
the use of the same size in a 16 and a 21 doesn't necessarily mean that the
one in the 16 is too small. It could just as easily have chosen one
flyback that is adequate for a 21, and used it across the product line.
