I really don't mind being taller, at all... yeah, some spaces feel a bit "tight,"* but no big deal. I used to live in a part of England where many of my friends lived in 18th and 19th century cottages, and it we strange to be in places that were clearly built at a time when people were much shorter. In some of them, the ceilings were barely 6"6"!
