It would need to be more than half the disc.  The unit has to cover the
entire right edge to operate the latch and shutter as well as to access the
opening, the lower left corner to read the state of the write-protect [and
that of the second hole, which is the primary indicator of
premastered-vs.-recordable], and of course the entire spindle.  About all
that could stick out would be the upper right corner (and possibly the
middle of the lower edge, but a concavity there would not reduce the outer
dimensions).
