That's my point. So saying "Discs allowed wider tires" seems inaccurate at best.
It's an incomplete statement like 99% of all statements in normal conversation.
An extended version of the statement includes the introductiory sentence
"With traditional crown-mounted rim brakes, shorter reach resulted in superior braking performance".
Fork mounted braking systems like cantilever did not reach the traditional road-bike market.
