Oh yes…in some buildings, where the ceiling is very close to my head, I feel very cramped and hate it.
Had to move through cellars where I had to basically crouch. Ugh.
Actually I just remembered one minus: tall people are used to not bumping their head on low things. Once I was visiting a museum where they have an old house with really low door ways, low even for me and I was constantly knocking my head because I am not used to having to crouch.
You missed the “everyone thinks you are there just to reach things for them”. Women in particular seem to feel entitled to my reach. The few men that ask are either walking with a cane or sitting in a wheelchair.
Even my Wife, 5"4"/163cm has no problem interrupting me from whatever I’m doing to reach things for her. Despite having 3 step stools in the house just for her.
But if it gets to be too much of a hassle and pisses me off, I start asking her to pick things up off the floor for me because she’s closer to it. She then has a fit because I’m making fun of her height, and then she stops asking me-- for a while.

Seriously the biggest benefit is that I always fit in places and never feel cramped

Rock and stone
Another benefit is slightly longer lifespan as the heart doesn’t need to work as hard for blood to travel as much distance.
Phhht it’s not that much of a diffe…ugh…😵
