To be honest, I'm used to it. All Graphic Apps end up making you buy more powerful hardware to handle them, SL by LL is actually not going as fast as Adobe that renders your computer useless in three consecutive updates. So, well make the best of it while you can.

I just said that on my last post a few minutes ago. I know.

That's not the point. It's a few centimeters gap, 2,20 m tall is about 1,80 m in Real Life. We're playing match with the environment itself (Look at Grass textures scale or default hair sizes for example). I'm not going to extremes, and I don't mind how tall you choose to be, there's short people in Real Life too and that's ok as long as you use the Golden Ratio. It's about people going to the extent to use deformers to alter the mesh and using it as an excuse to have certain behaviours while bending ToS to their whims, and yes, that's real.

Exactly, Real Life Scale is not valid in Second Life. It's not your avatar that is huge, it's the initial scale error that made it happen that way, so there's Real Life Scale and Second Life scale. When in Second Life, use Second Life's. Adjust yourself to the world around you, don't try to adjust the world to you. When that scale error was spotted was too late o set the toothpaste back in the tube, it's pointless to even try.

There's been used as an excuse by certain people, which created a loophole. Unless you're a dwarf, using the Golden Ratio (look it up), that's what you get. Everything else is just an excuse to validate some unwated behaviours.

A Regular mesh head is 75 on the Shape slider, a body is 7,5x the head size or 8 if you want it more elongated. a Hand is the size of your face. Doesn't matter how tall the Height Value is marked, that's Anathomy 1 on 1. Linden Lab did mess up the scale on release and after that all builds been done accordingly to that, furniture, etc. You look around on a regular club and people are about that size about 2 to 2.3 m tall. If you're a male and are bellow 2 meters in height, you're to be considered a child avatar. Do not use this scale loophole to bend the rules, stay in your G rated Regions.
