Why aren't people concerned about weird femur:tibia ratio?

I only want to lengthen like 6 cm, I'm not greedy, but I don't want to look like I have baby tibias.

This pic doesn't look too good to me tbh. And he only did 5.5 cm apparently. 

Either I have to do both tibia and femur or just accept that I"ll have this proportion :/

Yeah, that caterpillar leg look femur patients get is not an asthetically pleasing one.

It's one of the reasons I went for tibias.

he has definitely extended more than 5.5 cm. I've seen people who have lengthened 5-7 cm and it didn't look that bad

Generally speaking, the shorter you are the less you can lengthen without looking disproportionate...sadly.

Also many people have different initial femur/tibia ratios. Some people could look better after lengthening if they had longer tibia.

I also notice that being fat to the point where you have a muffin top makes your proportions look a lot worse. If you stay lean your hips and your belly almost blend together and if your flaccid penis is big enough even while wearing boxers* you can still look very good since a longer flaccid penis can give your hips an extra inch of perceived length and conversely make your femurs an inch shorter. This wouldn't work with the kind of underwear seen in the picture.

This would alone convince me to do tibias. Can most normal proportion people do tibias and be fine? Honestly seeing some of these femur proportions is killing my hope.

You saw them with or without clothes on. I know clothes can hide these things but I also want to look good nked.

This pic looks even worse because of how hes wearing his shorts.  Its making his femurs look even longer.

In the pic is a patient of the arab ukranian doc if I am not mistaken. I think he lengthened 10cm or more on his femurs.

This is relieving to hear. Whoever posted this thread claims it was 5.5 cm.

Seems weird that they would conjure that number out of thin air, but people do weird  things. I’m probably going to try to track down the original place this was posted to investigate.

The proportions don't matter type people are either trying to justify their more extreme lengthening goals and are ignorant of various studies/reality that most humans are around 0.8 tibia/femur ratio.

Other reason is viewing their body like any other item. They have spent a large amount of money for surgery and they want "to make it worth it". This usually means very large to extreme lengthenings which will give odd proportions.
