"In this occurence, the 55" LG TV would be sleeker than both a Vita and a Wii U controller by considering the Surface to depth ratio." ...um ok i did physics too i understand surface area and volume, but regardless it doesn't make this statment any less absurd in a context related to people who actually have to handle these devices "If it is a 40" LCD with a thinner debth compared to a vita's surface to depth ratio, then for all suits and purposes it is less bulky.

I think they key phrase here is "Relative to size". The ultrathin TV, relative to size, is very sleek, moreso than the Vita and Wii U controller. In absolutes, going by volume, of course both win, mind you not even by such a huge margin.
In absolutes, the Vita is smaller than a Wii U controller, but in relative form factor, the Wii U controller wins (40 versus 32 I believe it was).
In the context of design, the Wii U is sleeker than the Vita as explained ad nauseam (surface to depth ratio).
In the context of ergonomics ("context of people handling these devices"), the Wii U does not have claw holding and is lighter relative to volume. It can easily be held by both hands (not too big still, comparative to the TV mentioned), can be held comfortably and does not feel heavy. It beats Vita in this category by a landslide.

In the context of portability, the Vita beats the WiiU controller, but that isn't the context of the article, right? (This is rhetorical)
