Theory: The City's Food Crisis

So I noticed a strange correlation between age and height in Project Moon's games. Which is very unusual given that almost all the characters are adults who've presumably finished growing. Of course, what I noticed intuitively would really need hard proof to back it up, so I made my partner enter the data for every character in Library of Ruina (barring those of unknown height, age, or gender). He then made these charts which I found very sexy of him.

This is a pretty strong correlation between age and height, the exact opposite of the way it tends to be IRL in Asian countries. Food availability/quality tends to be the largest limiting factor on height, and historically, that's been pretty bad in East Asia. That's why over the 20th century, average height in Korea shot up 10% for men and 15% for women (compared to 3.5% for both in the United States).

I believe this is evidence of a food crisis occurring in the City. If I wanted to look into it further, I could break it down by decades or by nest vs backstreets, but I think this is a good example of PM's insanely detailed worldbuilding. IIRC, they mentioned a need for vast amounts of food in Yi Sang's chapter, and here's the material effects of that shortage.

I wanted to draw Bridget as a froggy...
