Some edge-case where the original design calculations showed the alloy upright and / or 82mm bearing wasn't strong enough with the extra rotating mass / inertia of the 20" wheel I think, so they went for a steel upright and 92mm bearing, making the unsprung mass even worse!

The D2s with 20" wheels ride remarkably well though tbh.
