I still stand by my head-size rule: sizes should be judged based on the size of the depicted character's head, when a semblance of "normal" body proportions can be assumed to apply (i.e. when not chibi or otherwise deformed).

Since, generally, the size of the head is a good standard upon which to base the proportions of the entire human body, I feel this is appropriate as an at-a-glance unit of measurement.

The metric is thus:

Breasts more than twice the character's head in size: gigantic breasts (potential candidate for deletion)

Between 1 and 2 heads in size: huge breasts

Roughly 1 head in size: large breasts

Less than 1 head, more than flat: average (no tag for this at the moment)

Significantly smaller than 1 head in size: small/flat chest

By the time you get to "small", the difference between "small" and "flat" depends only on how literally you want to apply the term "flat". At that point, applying the head-size rule without putting a measuring stick up to your screen is difficult, so conflating the terms makes sense.
