I realize that, my point was simply that you could argue safety on the basis that a tall driver is too close to the roof and it could put them at risk.

As for lowering a 90kg driver down, it would be interesting to see where the weight of two very different sized drivers is and what it does to the CG. I would bet that a 6'4" 90kg driver sitting an inch lower doesn't have a measurable difference in CG compared to me at 5'8" ~65kg
