It usually comes down to two reasons.
Viola said her DF has a 4000 km radius, yet she couldn’t see Green Bit with it. The much more logical conclusion is that it was just an error an it’s supposed to be a 4000 meter radius, but ofc some nerds online took it too seriously and scale Dressrosa to being larger than Russia. If we use their dumb scaling, most buildings in Dressrosa should be a kilometer wide.
Then there’s also the scaling using the river in Alabasta. Oda made the river 30 miles long for the sake of a joke, and later in the arc we got an overhead shot of the entire island. So pixelscalers got to work with pixel scaling Alabasta to be larger than Australia because of the width of the river in relation to Alabasta. Of course it’s highly unlikely Oda kept the river’s absurdly large width in mind when drawing the island, but that doesn’t matter to these nerds.
Well, they use this way of scaling to most verses, it's not just OP.
Fanverse also takes drawing and pixelscaling very literally and they get high numbers accordingly. Naruto planet is larger than ours, same as FT planet. It's just the way how these battleboard operate. And when it comes to feats, sometimes calcs are needed because pure eyeballing won't give you accurate results.
I used to question everything from these battleboards too but I started to understand their approach to scale fictional verses and although I still don't agree with lots of things, I at least recognize when calcs are important. It isn't always about sizes. How would you find out how strong Bajrang Gun is otherwise? How do you find out the force to move the moon to crash this onto the planet (Toneri's feat)? How do you judge Madara's feat when he basically rooted the entire planet with the Shinjuu tree?
Personally, I do think OP world is significantly larger than ours. The geographical map of OP isn't even comparable to ours.
The strawhats needed to travel several times between cities so I'd say Alabasta is a decent country in size. Yet Alabasta is just an island like everything else. There are small islands but also large islands like Alabasta. Then there's also a mention of continents which Chinjao splitted. The OP world contains millions of islands, each completely different in size. Tottoland itself has 35 islands, each of them having its own size.
