May be a dumb question, but I gotta ask

The wrapper is one aspect that has a large difference the overall taste of a cigar. In many cases, for me, the thinner the RG the more apparent the wrappers influence on the cigar. Some smaller RG cigars double wrap the wrapper making it even more prominent.

"The blend" is impossible to precisely maintain in varying size cigars. There will be variations in flavor just based upon the differences in the relative amounts of filler, binder and wrapper in different RG cigars.
