Don't know if I am the only one who feels this way, I never really thought about it before today.
The smaller RG cigars are more difficult to blend, and to roll. The quality of leaf I would think has to be higher all around to get the blend to deliver with fewer leaves. Since they are also harder to roll, I would imagine that only the better torcedors in the factory are rolling them.

So, I would agree with your perception of lanceros, and smaller rg cigars in general.
