Commentary for Sukkah 7:6
היתה גבוהה י' טפחים והוצין יורדין לתוך י' סבר אביי למימר אם חמתם מרובה מצלתם כשירה
[A sukkah] was ten tefah tall, and palm leaves descend fall within ten. Abaye thought to say: If the sun is greater than the shade, then it is valid.
Rashi on Sukkah
Abaye thought to say - That like a tall [sukkah] is not considered to be lowered and valid when the sunlight is greater than the shade, similarly with a low [sukkah], it is not considered to be lowered to become invalid if its sunlight is greater than its shade, so it is valid.
