Thanks to @dlang for fitness explantion:  
fitness = 1/average error

where average error is looking at each point and measuring the difference  
between the belt lengths that it thinks it should have at that point with the  
calculated frame size and the belt length measurements that it got at that  
point.

Yes, larger frames typically have larger errors and lower fitness.
