Q.

Is there also something to do with inlet size versus outlet size? and also the amount of bypass? Older engines (JT3 etc) had higher EPR values than modern big fans. If I remember correctly the JT3 on 707's used to be about 2.02 on take off (ISA etc) versus engine I use today which is 1.54 on take off...

Still learning....
