There's also the chunk of the population with vision problems like presbyopia. I just upgraded my Moto G to a Moto X Play, and the pocketability hasn't been adversely impacted. My new, bigger, phone doesn't really feel bigger in the pocket (thanks to thinness and smallish bezels), and I can't really tell the difference. The best thing is that I can set the font size to Huge and read the screen with only a little squinting without having to pull out my reading glasses. I don't think there's any way I could go back to a screen the size of an iPhone 4/5.

There's also those of us who are just bigger people. From fingertip to palm my hands are on the order of 10 inches long. The standard phones of a few years ago were incredibly difficult for me to use. I still have an iPhone 4S that I use in a speaker dock for media and I can easily (and regularly) press 4 keys at once with one touch. That said, there's clearly a market for smaller phones still, just not from me, and I don't understand why the manufacturers don't see this.
