In the other dimension (length), a longer cigar will develop (ie. have potential to change) more as it is smoked, with a larger volume of smoke, oil and residue being drawn through it over time.
I was just about to ask this, if smoking a 5 x 50 was any different than a 6 x 50 other than the length of the smoke.

I don't think he's saying that longer cigars are more complex. Period. But that a longer cigar has more time, and therefore more potential to change, not that it necessarily will.
