The symbology size does not change as you move your eyes closer or further from the combining glass. If it did than any form of angular range finding (stadimetric) would not be possible.

I see from the photo's that the sight was inline with the right eye. I am assuming US and British planes had it centrally placed. Would this have made much difference?
And if it did, one hopes SOW models this...
