This is mainly because they achieved perfection, then decided that they would rather look at hyper realistic images than perfected images....when you think about it, the left one all started from the David statue a_@
The David statue follows the greek proportion of perfection, wich is 8 heads tall (or 9, not sure now). ALSO, the original was on a slightly high pedestal, so these disproportions were fixed from that particular point of view, a practice usually made in the renaissance and ancient greece itself.
So, as the tiny statue can be seen from any point of view, the hugeass one can't. Something to have into consideration.
Different ways to consider perfection, but it's stupid to say any is flawed. If anything, both are.
