I agree. My last phone was a 4" Motorola Atrix 4G and my current phone is a 4" iPhone 5. I think 4" is about the limit for me as far as easy portability goes. To be honest, even a 7" screen is too small for me for internet surfing. I find that a 4" screen on a smartphone is a good compromise between screen real estate and portability. I can do just as much on a 4" screen as I can on a 5" screen, and I really don't want a boat anchor hanging on my belt or stuffed into a pocket. If I need a large screen then I will rely on my iPad 3 or a computer.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I seriously doubt this rumor is valid. Apple doesn't operate that way. Once they make up their mind to build something with a specific set of specs, they stick with that plan.
