No, I was responding to your questions, specifically:

> is there really all that much demand for the size of game advocated for?

Yes, people do buy and play small games.

> Aren't those publishers asking for bigger games because that's what the market is looking for?

Obviously, there is demand for big games because big games sell. But the publishers focusing on big games doesn't mean that there is only demand for big games. There are multiple reasons why publishers would not be interested in small games or small studios.
