Yes, there's that. The K-r is actually perfect for my hand size, but I also think it's because I'm used to it. I hadn't used my ME Super for ages but I picked it up once (before donating it to a local photo club) and it seemed tiny. My finger didn't naturally go to the shutter release like it does with the K-r.
Looking at comparison grid, I see:
K-70 125.5 x 93 x 74 mm -- K-S2 122 x 91 x 72.5 mm -- K-r 125 x 97 x 68 mm -- and for fun, KP 131.5 x 101 x 76 mm and ME Super 131.5 × 83 × 49.5 mm
Hard to tell which dimension would be troubling, the differences seem insignificant, but a few millimeters here and there might make the difference.
