The LD version seems plausibly the same dimensions as the second pic, if you notice how Tendi appears to be positioned lengthwise under Rutherford’s back. Assuming that Tendi and Rutherford are both smaller than Riker, which seems to be the case.
I’m imagine if it was a different class of ship, it would also have different jeffries tubes. I think the Enterprise, Defiant, and Voyager tubes are all styled differently, but consistently with their ship. Not to mention the DS9 tubes would have to be different because they were designed by Cardassians (and built by Bajoran slave labor).
Yeah it seems unreasonable to me that the Defiant and Enterprise D wouldn’t have totally different size Jeffries tubes considering how different in scale and function the two ships are.
But isn’t the point of the tubes to be well, tubes? Leading to barely accessible spaces in the inner workings of the ship that don’t need to be accessible very often.
It wouldn’t make sense that the tubes are suddenly larger or smaller because the ship sizes are different. If anything they would just have more or less tubes.
Anything that needs to be worked at or accessed frequently is not tucked away in a Jeffries tube (think warp core).
Different ships have different size requirements. There’s lots of space in a Galaxy class starship, so the tubes can afford to be bigger (and thus easier for people to crawl through). The Defiant is a very utilitarian ship, so space is at a premium and thus the tubes are smaller.

Context matters, even if you don’t care about it.
