Now this is gambling.
If one has to fit in a 2m box, couldn't you interpretate it like this?
Compare the size difference.

Hi.
For FAI that is not the rule.
There is no mention of a '2m box' - there never was.
The code in summary says ; Max,, Length =2000mm, max wingspan = 2000mm with +/_ 1% for instrument tolerance.
Effectively 2020mm on any given day with any given measuring device.
