Petz,

dropping geometry down by 28% (0.25 to 0.18) reduces capacitance down by 48% (proportional to size**2)

Perhaps you should consider this statement again.

Also, I believe the main problem with coupling when going to smaller geometries is between the sidewalls of parallel lateral traces, due to the height (or thickness) of the traces needed as widths decrease.

Pravin.
