The size of the disc or drum is just one part of sorting out the brakes. To do it properly you must consider the pad size, calculate swept area, then determine the piston or wheel cylinder area to get a clamping force.

If you want to do the brake modifier correctly you have to go to this level of detail as there are examples of tiny rotors that get it done with large pads, good calipers, and examples with large rotors that have poor brake components.

Screw all that noise. We should not go to that level of detail for the process.
