Bug HLG

Has anyone built the Bug larger than the plans? I was thinking that the design was strong enough, that if I added 1 extra rib and kept all the wood thicknesses/CF diameters the same that I'd actually be able to get a lower wingloading (assuming same equipment). Has anyone tried this? I think I may have to extend the nose a tiny bit to get the plane to balance, but besides that it should work great! I've also got a shipment of contest balsa coming to try making a really light bug as drawn. Anyways - those are my ideas. I'd be interested in your comments.
