Why did the score on the right suddenly become smaller?

With so many staves without music, which take up less space, it looks like the system on the second page has fallen below the thresholds you have set in **Layout Options \> Vertical Spacing \> Vertical Justification** and also **Layout Options \> Note Spacing \> Only justify final system in flow when more than X% full**.
