Newly-quenched galaxies as the cause for the apparent evolution in average size of the population

Abridged. We use COSMOS to study in a self-consistent way the change in the number densities of quenched early-type galaxies (Q-ETGs) of a given size over the interval 0.2 < z < 1.0 to study the claimed size evolution of these galaxies. At 10^10.5
