    Would you want to factor in life expectancy at all?

        It feels like it might impact your view a bit if you did.

        As good as it is to be marginally taller for 30-40 years, or be a super tall person who died an infant. Not that the article you linked has any description of heights related to whichever “golden age” you might refer to, but whatever.

          Is it not implied when they mentioned economists research height (if not there’s more I can provide)? It’s also why North Koreans are famously shorter than South Koreans.

            Pick your golden era and then show me an article that indicates the average height was greater in that period than it is now, if this is the point you really want to focus on.
