That's why I think the best way is to go with a blanket "Everything is Affected" as a baseline, and be prepared to make exceptions as and when appropriate...

"I'll stand in front of my colleagues and protect them, because I'm Large the enemy won't be able to shoot past me to hit them" "OK"

"I'll barge past those two Earth Spirits using my 'Large' to force them out of the way"
"Since you are in the Earth Spirit world, they draw their strength from the ground, while you are cut off from your physical existance, so your 'Large' is modified due to the 'Dangerous' nature of the world"
