Why does Reb M require modified crystallization conditions?

Reb M's higher molecular weight (1287.4 g/mol vs 967.0 for Reb A) necessitates: ethanol-water ratio of 55:45 (vs 65:35 for Reb A), prolonged nucleation phase (120min vs 60min), and strict temperature control at 40±0.5°C to achieve ≥98% purity crystals.
