The only thing I can imagine that is non-cosmetic is that larger pipes might reduce the frequency of the exhaust noise and/or overall loudness of exhaust.
Lower frequency noises are less likely to bother people, as would less overall volume.
But that's so minor a concern in most scenarios that you can probably ignore it.
Bigger exhaust stacks? Why..

All about the attention! When you’re screaming up that left lane people hear you coming. Then you can throw the jakes at 3am in the truckstop as you scrape knuckles on the ceiling while sitting on the floor.

I think they're trying to reduce back pressure to a negative number.
