If we have abandoned the 700MB size limit that needs to be shown predominantly on the download page. For 12.04 the CD image was also too big and that was considered a bug.

Is there a similar statement on Ubuntu?

You were right the general 'get kubuntu' page still showed 700MB before the release selection, thanks for pointing that out. It's now removed, and the actual download page does show the correct image size.
Looking at Ubuntu I can't find any mention of the image size until you start downloading it (seems to be currenty ~750M)
