The larger network contains exponentially more subnetworks. 10x the size contains far more than 10x subnetworks (although it'd also take more than 10x as long to train).

Ah ok - so you are saying the explosion of subnetworks is higher than the explosion of training time - leading to a win.

In this case a positive benefit of combinatorial complexity.
