If you are referring to my 9C, both dials are large but the compound dial, original, is graduated in two-thousandths, so one division equals diameter removed. The newer, cross feed dial is graduated in one thousandth, equal to cross slide movement.
It has never bothered me. The divisions on the compound dial are physically twice the size of those on the cross slide dial, so when I look at them I know which I am looking at.

I'm envious of the large dials you have . I managed to find a
SB owner that was passing forward some of the help he had gotten from
other SB owners & he sold me a large crossfeed dial along with lead
screw & both nuts for $25.00 . I'm hoping to find another guy like
that so I can hopefully get a large dial for m compound . One of these
days .
