" Gentlemen,

If you dropped a stick of bombs spaced within three inches of the pattern you want, and they landed in a field fifty yards from my office, they would probably break down the windows. If you dropped one 10,000 lb bomb and missed by 500 yards, you would at least blow the complete roof off the building!"

Roy Chadwick, the designer of the Lancaster bomb bay telling about his views why use bigger bombs....
