I agree with the rolling-diameter theory. Even tires of the same size from different manufactures can vary slightly in diameter. And this change in circumference is hard on the transfer case (because the rate of rotation varies from front to back). Another way to view this is that the price of another pair of tires is less than replacing your transfer case.
