This made me realize there is a block size paradox. Bigger blocks devalue the chain reducing the TX count such that the big block forks have smaller blocks on average than the real deal with a limit on blocksize.
Smaller block limits will limit the block size so blocks must be smaller even if there is more demand.
So, it is not possible to create larger blocks by changing chain rules. You can only make the blocks smaller.
Dang y'all be filling up my hard drives with your transactions. :)
