Dogmatic Opinion
The image is that the amount of objects that stick to each other and the surface area become smaller in the following order: Pettari > Pettori > Pittori.
“Petteri” is several dozen centimeters in size (buttocks on the floor).
“Pettori” is several centimeters in scale (jam and hairdressing).
“Pittori” is a few millimeters in size (about the size of the tip of a baby’s pinky finger),
The above is just my personal view.
