Why is pryout getting worse as I increase concrete edge distance?

Why is pryout getting worse as I increase concrete edge distance?

Designing a shear embed plate, file attached. With an edge distance of 5", pryout is okay. When I increase the distance to 12", I get a pryout failure. This is counterintuitive. Why is this happening?
