It's part of their model already. And oh! The sun has the same size.

I can't remember which comedian said this but he absolutely loves talking to flat earthers. Whenever they bring up the moon being too small, etc., he bursts out laughing and says, "You believe in the moon?!"

Also in this model, the sun and moon cannot be seen in the sky at the same time, except during an eclipse. And the stars never change through the seasons, they are fixed points that look the same no matter where you are at on Earth.
