Another big-bigger scooter option.

Disagree.
It's not my 'cup of tea'.
Their Integra is the 'big-bigger scooter' option.

It's a good thing that Honda also produces cars and some ideas are carried over into MC production.
For decades cars buyers can choose sedans, station wagons, hatchbacks, two-door/four doors or even convertibles built on the same platform which makes them cheaper.
Why not apply this to MCs?
The three NC versions - naked, "adventure" and scooter - are a good example. They are three totally different bikes to the eye and the uninformed.
The CTX models are also based on the same platform and look different from the NCs.
Smart decision of Honda to offer several models and thus keep the production costs/resale price down.
Looks like even the rims of the two very different bikes above are the same.
