I know the reason - it's to make it fold smoother. When you fold the collar the only way to be able to keep it perfectly flat is to have the top part just a tiny bit bigger than the bottom. I've been miserable over these things as well and haven't been able to find any instructions as to how to make it work. Depending on how much bigger the top collar is maybe you can hold in the with and sew them together? Worked for me, but then the difference was maybe less than 1cm on each side...
