This is not true. The way dry food is made is that the ingredients are mixed and heated way before the kibble is actually cut into pieces.
Dogs usually eat large pieces of things, relatively speaking. If you give a dog a very large chewy toy, large or small dog, each dog will bite off pieces that they are comfortable chewing and swallowing. Give the same size bully stick to a Maltese and the Maltese will bite much smaller pieces than a Labrador. They chew and swallow things to their respective limit, this is why large dogs should eat large pieces.
What do you expect Fromm to say? Ask any objective person with knowledge of this and they will tell you it is faster (and cheaper) to make small pieces rather than large. What is involved in making larger kibble vs small is changing the die at the end of the machine, very much like when a child plays with Play-Doh. Nothing different except for that.
If Fromm was concerned about protein quality, it wouldn't use so much vegetable protein, especially "pea protein" which is just a cheap ingredient.
