No effort is (and generally speaking, can be) made to fit the daily CD images fit on a CD; they're built automatically, and such an effort is only made for the milestone images. Martin Pitt has partly addressed the cause of the recent inflation in a post to ubuntu-devel-discuss:

Please don't file bugs about this problem. We know about it, a bug about it is only likely to get forgotten, and rest assured that it is automatically a release blocker anyway.
