In Bach parlance, a D cup is typically shallower than a C cup, the opposite of Schilke. So:

E: very shallow
D: shallow
C: medium shallow
No letter is medium.
B: medium deep
A is deep but still shallower than all the G cups.

I'm thinking about like a 15C, but shallower and with a more rounded rim? :idk: never seen one.
