Maybe K5 service tickets are small while TGT's are large. Thus,
sending a service ticket to the module requires no chunking,
whereas sending the TGT back to oneself (via a cookie scoped to
the login server) requires chunking.

I can't think of any other reason this would be so. Thanks for the
note.
