I would note one point, at least, in Byte's defense.  They
tried to put out a special "68000" issue (Mac, Atari, Amiga)
but they couldn't sell enough ads to justify a new issue.
So instead, they staggered the contents throughout
later issues.

Ad space dictating issue size and special reports, etc.
is not just true for Byte, incidentally.  It also applies
to local newspapers, Forbes, etc. etc.
