Have you ever come across a melted 16mm tail ? Me , no never ...

why are tails expected to be 25mm , seems utter overkill imo

Yes you’re right and I’m constantly coding C3 for undersized meter tails. Just out of curiosity what do you code 6mm twin and earth with 10/15 mtr run to shower with power consumption of 9kw with thermal effects at pullcord? (Melted)

The melting at the pull cord will be due to poor terminations, not because it's 6mm cable.
