Yes, of course you can ride a huge SUP foil in loads of wind and waves.
But is it fun and balanced and the right tool ?
IMO it is just like back in the days when Robby Naish did forward loops on a huge/long raceboard.
We were all dazzled that he could do it (and we still are), but apart from that, it made no sense, as the wrong tool for the job.

With the advent of large hydrofoils, it does open up other possibilities for SUP, so you can go to a smaller SUP and still kite in light winds.
But having a compromise that does a lot of things is never as good as the best choice for doing one thing - as you say.
