The larger Providence (and Recusant) variant shown in TCW is mostly due to resource allocation and reusing the same bridge set as they did on the Munificent. It never really conflicts with anything since the smaller ones never appear in the show, and the Tarkin novel actually explicitly makes a note that the Providence in the book is one of the smaller types. It's kind of odd that Grievous would go to the smaller Invisible Hand after using the larger Providences through the entire show, but it's possible they just simply ran out of larger ships getting blown up left and right and had to resort to the smaller reserve designs.

Hello:

 Wow, I had no idea it was because of reusing the Munificent's bridge, I've seen that one in pics and it is very spacious! Like way too big I guess they might have ran-out of the extra budget or time to model the bridge interior of other ships? . I know the Providence was build by some of the Quarren people, and at this size it is almost like the MC-80 ships made by the Mon Calamari (at that time still peace-time ships) so been at least 1000 meters in lenght can make sense.

 Speaking of oversized bridge modules, somehow I always felt the Munificent was a much smaller ship than it's stated size, despite the huge bridge, but it might better serve it's purpose if smaller.
