You're not a big fan of comprehension, are you? Of course there aren't any proportion issues from 1-100... because their proportions are designed to work within that range. But if you tried making a female Au Ra as big as a the tallest male Au Ra, or a male Au Ra as small as the smallest female Au Ra, the proportions would be GROSSLY out of whack.


Plenty of women can be taller than men, the max for girls being only average on the guys, as you're suggesting, doesn't solve this issue still. The point is for each race the minimum, median, maximum, et cetera heights for that race should be the same for men or women, you can go "Well, the average height for men and women is x and x of this race" and still allow a girl Miqo'te to be 5'8. There point is there's plenty of girls that are just as tall as tall as a lot of guys, just as there's plenty of short guys as short as, restricting the players ability to make something that's still within reason (IE girls as tall as the current max height for men and guys as short as the current minimum for girls) is silly an unneeded, hence the point of the topic. Making it so there's still a height difference just less of one, between the two doesn't solve any issue it just makes the problem slightly less worse.
You're also not a big fan of reading either, apparently.

Yes, it's a well known fact that some women are taller than some men. But it's also a well known fact that men are generally taller than women. So there's nothing unrealistic about women being shorter than men in this game.

That being said, please note that I said for some races, it would work to allow them to have equal max and minimum heights (I specifically cited midlanders). And that I think they could at least change it so that the max female height is equal to the 50 male height.

What you're not getting is that THAT DOESN'T WORK FOR ALL RACES (there, I put it in caps and bolded it for you). Au Ra and Roes in particular, because their proportions wouldn't allow you to equalize their heights without dramatic and complete redesigns.
