maf and throttle body diameter

got a question:

on the 986S, the maf is 3" diameter, but the throttle body is 2-2/3" (68mm).

on the 996, the maf is 3-1/2" diameter, but the throttle body is 3" (76mm).

one would think that they would be the same size for max airflow; why have a smaller throttle body?
