Stick Second Stage and Delta IV

Has anyone else noticed that the proposed
SRB/SSME "Stick" vehicle has a second stage
diameter that is roughly the same as the
diameter of the Delta IV Common Booster
Core (5.1 meters)? And, by the way, that
the SRB/SSME second stage length seems to
be not much less than the length of a CBC?
