Can we once and for all retire the "I want my teen Sims to look 12 years old" thing?

If I remember right, the reason they are the way they are is if they were a different height from adults, they would need an entirely separate set of animations for every animation in the game. Not saying it's a valid excuse, but animations are the most time consuming and considering we hardly ever get brand new animated objects and interactions these days as it is, it would probably be even worse if teens needed their own. So I can live with it.

This is also why kids can't do things like ride bikes. Which is NO excuse to me, and just plain stupid.
