Remember that the legal range of sizes comes very close...circumference up to 29.0" for the girls and as low as 29.5" for the boys....which means the diameter difference would be as little as 0.15 inches...a measurement difference smaller than most people could perceive without a direct comparison. And the weight ranges meet.

Without another to compare side by side, I'd bet most would have trouble instinctively distinguishing between some that are at the nearest points of the two. Only looking for the labeling would be the sure way to tell.
