The tail swing nobody else matches

Tail swing is the difference between digging against a wall and digging near one. Measured from each maker's own sheet, this is how far the back of the machine sticks out past the tracks:

Sunward SWE25UF 0.6 in
Kubota U27-4 Kubota calls it "tight tail," not zero
John Deere 26 P-Tier 31 in swing radius — reduced tail
Cat 302.7 CR 30.5 in swing radius — compact radius
Bobcat E26 6 in — Bobcat's own wording
