This one is the problem. It's checking the spam condition _before_ it
checks the size condition.

You should probably rework your config so that it only checks the spam
condition in the first stanza; the $spam_* vars will carry over to
future stanzas, so that you can add multiple headers. Your current
config will fail in the case of a spamassassin error; it will attempt to
rerun the spam check for each spam=spamd:true check, so if there's a
recurring spamassassin failure, it will churn a lot of resources.
