This is a great post, thank you for taking the time to analyze and lay this out for us. It's pretty much spot on. The turian faces have bothered me more than anything else in this game, and I hardly ever see it talked about, so I appreciate the in depth look you took on it. Turians look so much better in the OT, I really hope they are able to fix it, because they are probably my favorite race, and it's disappointing to see what happened to them in ME:A.
Wow never knew Javik is only 1.5m tall! Doesnt look like it during the game...

That's a fictional chart, based on some data and people assuming how tall they should be. You'll notice that, aside from the volus and elcor, the head of almost everyone in ME are on the same level. This is not an actual gameplay reproduction. ^_^
I think it's just too pronounced. It takes away from the experience for me, I don't know. Having my main character even as a man be short. Feels less intimidating and actually looks funny at times how short.

some of the heights might be fictional, but some are not. there was an official action statue series (Play Arts Kai) that had character sheets on them.
Those are the most official heigths you get as far as I know:
maleShep 6'
Garrus 7'
Tali 5'3"
Mordin 6'10"
Legion 6'6"
The average height of Turians is said to be over 6' but I don't know where this comes from.
And in the novel Revelation there is a krogan said to be over 8' tall.
Ah, yes. I was merely pointing out that the game visually has not that distinction, only when we data mine for them elsewhere. The gameplay have them all with the same height, aside armor variances, spikes, flourishing details. ^_^
