True, but...

If you put the medium format aside and go back to Realist vs. full-frame
35 mm, you can magnify the Realist more and still be able to see the
entire image, compared to full-frame.  The only way around this, is to use
rectangular lenses.  Most lenses are round and most consumer projection
screens are square.  Not my fault, mind you... ;)

Gabriel, I have tried (and I am trying them every day) both Realist and
full-frame 35 mm stereo slides.  I like the semi-square Realist and
the 7-p format.  You have only tried the full-frame.  Why don't you try 
the Realist format for a while and see what you think.  I am willing to 
send you a Realist camera and viewer.  (that's an offer I reserve for 
good friends only...or Greeks ;)... or semi-Greeks ;) ;))
