I am under 33" and by adding the 3 inches I get the perfect fit. Adding the 5" would make the ratio to cup size way too small, thus giving me a cup that does not come close to fitting. Perhaps this part can't have a hard an fast rule as one may be wider at this point because the back is wider. Mine is not so much. The difference is all in the bust so I need the larger size cup.

(Which I am most certainly not) OR 34-29=5=DD?? (which I am, again, most certainly not) My cup falls somewhere between a B or C, and neither of these methods are effectively helping me determine what it really is. I used to be a B, gained weight and went to a C, lost weight (but not quite back to where I used to be) and am having the hardest time determining what my ideal fit would be.
