My apologies. I asked the right question but used the wrong illustration. Oversized seat stay caps can be seen on this Harry Quinn track bike

A minute ago I wrote:

Dale Brown sent a link to a Raleigh Pro with oversized seat stay caps. I have always thought the oversized caps looked sloppy, like the builder could not be bothered to do the work necessary to get the caps flush with the stays. Is this just another esthetic approach to ending the seat stays? Is there more to it than that?
