If the bra you have doesn't give you quadboob after swooping and scooping then I would like to congratulate you on finding the perfect fit. Bra sizing is so much more complex than measuring but the method of not adding inches and subtracting from your band size is only a starting point but it's the most accurate method out there.
I always like to emphasize that measurements are a starting point and you won't know if the bra actually fits unless you try it on.
There are many measurements that are needed to get as close to accurate as possible a cup size,
My standing measurement would put me at a 26FF but my leaning and lying measurement are more accurate for me because I have projected breasts.
Some shapes of boobs like conical or pendulous, can overestimate the cup size. That could make up for the discrepancy in your cup size.
And F cups are not as big as you may think. I can fit into a 30F I even have pictures posted on my thread and my breast are no where close in size to Kim kardashian or Katy Perry's who are only estimated to have 32DD but are probably more like G/GG with smaller band sizes. Check out the http://www.brabandproject.com/gallery/search/cup/F and you'll see that an F is not as big as you think.
And I wouldn't recommend getting a band smaller than your comfortably snug measurement unless you have a lot of squash to your ribcage (difference between tight and snug measurement) or you have large breasts that need the extra support.
