Big instances are a positive in the sense that probably more people are willing to help maintain it

But it's really bad in the sense that, technically, one person has ultimate power over all the communities and users on the instance

Spreading out is the most optimal, so that when one goes down (which has happened many times in the past) another can take its place.

Big == bad, and also partly the reason why these two instances got defederated
