Its cause the British and the French while both using feet and inches had different sizes for what an inch was. So a 5' 2" in France was closer to 5' 7" in England. But it's easier to say he is short and didn't like that.

So he wasn’t tiny, he was just very short. Gotcha.

Except in the land of Lilliputians. Also there’s nothing wrong with being short, as you’re implying by taking offense at a statistical fact.
