So, 21,500 Troops Is Too Little but 2,000 Is Too Much?

With Tony Blair's announcement that Britain is scaling back its forces in Iraq, a question has been tickling the back of my mind:

If cutting 2,000 troops from Basra is a devastating amount to leave, why isn't 21,500 troops considered to be a big increase?
