i didn't even know this was possible actually. idk anything about it, my first thought was it seems dangerous but damn, kinda impressive though.

I am short but I really wouldn't consider it. 5'5" to 5' 10 really isn't that big a change.
However if I was average hight I would. Cause to go from 5'7to 6' or even a little more is a big step. At that point people start reacting to you with pack instinct. Might even be worth the multiple thousands and risk of death.

When you get to that range people start reacting to people with increased reguard. Not enough to count on. But we still have our old monkey dna where we instinctivly thing bigger means more important.
Idk. As someone on the other side of this, I often wish I was much closer to the average so I wouldn't stand out so much.
Your preference is valid. Being increaseingly reguared can be unpleasant.
It's not a preference. I wouldn't shorten myself even if it were gratis and complication-free. I like my body. It is a remarkably good body.
It's just a matter of "the grass is always greener on the other side".
Nah, not exactly. As a male presenting person tall people do better in our society. They on average get paid more. People rate them as more likeable. If you are tall enough you can simply get jobs for being tall. To stretch a metaphor it is the male equalivant of having big badonkers.
I have no ability to make a controlled comparison because I have never been a height that wasn't noticeable.
At any rate, there are a lot of factors outside my control that have much more of an impact on my life than height. White-passing skin (~2x as much impact), family SES (~3x), mental disorders (~5x), maybe more.
