Is there some kind of formula for determining best grill size to BTU
ratio?

Also , is it true that the HD has some sort of big sale on the floor units
about mid summer?( probably doesn't matter as they are all Propane)

I guess you can do a Btu to square inch of primary cooking surface analysis.
In general, more is better as you can turn the burners down.

HD does have a mid summer sale, IIRC, but they do not have the best
selection of grills if you want something really good. They handle Vermont
Castings, but the models they have are made for the mass market. The
Signature series is a better quality. Take a look at some of the propane
dealers and outdoor furniture shops, etc. You may pay a few $ more, but
over the next 15 or so years, you will enjoy a better product.

AFAIK any brand of propane grill can be converted to NG.
