a new calc for the size of Dragon Ball's Earth was recently accepted, putting the Planet at a little over twice the size of our IRL Earth, now this could potentially affect several calcs involving all the other planets in the verse due to statements of Earth being considered a "Small Planet"(Not going to link it here since i want to save that discussion for another time)
As far as i know, our standards to accept such a thing comes from this threador at least they are listed there, honestly should be officially put on a rule page or something, but whatever
The planet seems to fit the criteria for it being bigger than our IRL Earth via the calculation, so now discuss, be civil, grab a sunday and let's begin this

Evidence
So going over them:Well, i dunno by "sharply" similar ish vegetation at least, but a completely different geography, and very unique civilization and fauna, so maybe?The planet does not sharply resemble Real Life Earth.
Yep, the entire basis of the calc is a verbatim stated distance between two placesThere are canonical measurements/references of measurement that don't require calculation stacking.
as far as i know, there isn'tThere is little to no counterevidence or antifeats as to the planet's size.
There are legitimate reasons to believe the planet may be larger beyond the calculation itself.
"Yep, the entire basis of the calc is a verbatim stated distance between two places"......part 2Examples of this can vary from confirmation from the author, suggestion or statements from characters in-verse, or features resembling that of later planets (such as rings around the planet).
As far as i remember, yeahThere are limited anti-feats regarding the planet's size, such as defying physics that would come with a planet of such size.
Don't know about directly, but it is very different in a lot of aspects, down to its very geography, so......i guess?The planet does not directly resemble our planet Earth, and thus, can be assumed to be of different size.
Pretty sure this is the only map model ever used by the series in any media whatsoever......so yes i thinkThe planet calculation is consistent with any other shots or models of the planet in the verse.
Conclusion
The planet seems to fit the criteria for it being bigger than our IRL Earth via the calculation, so now discuss, be civil, grab a sunday and let's begin this
