Does the Osprey 46 carry-on size?

The Porter 46 is considered a max-size carry on with dimensions of 22” x 14” x11” (56 x 36 x 28 cm). This pack gets a lot of criticism for being wider than the max allowable by most airlines. And while this is true if the pack is overpacked, it has such good compression that it's easy to squish the bag down to 9”.
