Do smaller killers have smaller hitboxes that help fight against looping?

The reason looping is such a powerful tool for survivors is because survivors have smaller hitboxes that allow them to make sharper turns than killers with larger hitboxes. But with Legion having the same movement styles as survivors, it got me thinking. There are a few killers that are smaller than the standard large killers. Do these smaller killers have smaller hitboxes that allow them to loop around obstacles faster?

    No.

    Legion is a 110% movement speed character. Whatever advantage a smaller hitbox would provide, would get negated by that factor.

    Besides, it's not all about hitboxes. While you're correct in your original statement, consider too that survivors accelerate faster than killers when changing directions (devs stated that in a stream some time ago). That's why I find smaller loops - especially those around big trees - even more powerful. It would take like 8 or 9 turns to land a hit in those with a 110% ms killer. Killers actually have more chances to cut distance in longer loops, with more straight lines to run in.
