Size is too small - Vortex Padded Spotting Scope Case

Bought this to go with my Vortex Viper spotting scope. Looks nice and great design BUT poor padding (you can literally hear it compress /crackle when you pinch the case) and it does NOT fit when my scope is in the neoprene sleeve that came with the scope. Why would the case not fit over both?? Even without the neoprene sleeve, it’s a really tight fit. So now my choices are the slippery neoprene sleeve that seems to offer some protection or the case that has a convenient strap but not much protection. I would expect the sizing to be a little more thoughtful…
