    No, it is:
    
    "More mass per cross-sectional area, more decay time;
     less mass per cross-sectional area, less decay time".
    
    ISS may be massive, but it is hollow.  Crunch that same mass down into a little ball (with smaller cross-section) and it will take longer to decay.

    So, is the following "slogan" generally correct:
    
    "More mass, more decay time; less mass, less decay time" ?
