    I never have but if I try, I'd most likely use hingan sideboards or stages as elevated platforms and sink tables in them, and use lalafellin steps as stairs to the newly elevated "floor". Part of the lalafell cuteness is 'cause they're smaller than everything else. So to shrink everything down to their size takes away from their being cute. It just does.

    They could and have, true. And yet they still left a couple of housing glitches/workarounds in, hopefully for good. Like I don't understand why you can only put windows on walls and not partitions, you have to use an exploit for that.

    Also the room where everything's shrunk to size would be very unlike the FFXIV environment outside of it. Momodi's not behind a shorter counter. She's standing on something. The only time anything was ever shrunk for a lala was [SPOILER] in SB. Lalas live in the same world as everyone else. They don't have a "shire". So, yeah, it'd be nice to make stuff for little people anywhere, but I just don't see it in this game.

    Those are options but why should lalafell players have to use extra furnishing slots just to get something to look normal for them? It isn't exactly fair when the taller races can make a room look practical with less time, money and furnishing slots. Also the stage is taller than most if not all tables.

    And the furnishing intended for that, the lalafellin stool, is not tall enough to sensibly reach everything. Furthermore you cannot place any npcs on it. You can't place any npcs on any platform furnishing be it a chair, stage, etc. If you have lalafell npcs you either have a tiny choice of furnishings to use as counters/tables or have them looking like children hiding behind one.
