I can only imagine how the knee placements on pants would be off after lengthening your femurs for example. Is this true, or will it be fine getting new pants? It'd be a hassle tailoring every pair of pants you get lol.

Finding pants was easier for me now that I didn't have to shop in the kids section.

My calves got bigger though and no matter what, taking my pants off is now a struggle.

I was 1.63 at 12-13 y/o, so 1.64 is pretty much kids size in my country lol. I’m sure the same can be said about the States.

I believe once we lengthen our legs we would have the leg length of an average height man. There are more options for people that are average than not.

No that's not what I meant.

I meant that some pants have a knee-point and if your femur is longer then it won't match the knee point of the pants. Though on second thought I don't think it matters much or is even obvious.

No, it is better now.
Before I have to shorten all my jeans-pants, now there is no need for 30 length jeans. Even most 32 are ok. 34 are still too long though.

I don't remember as there is a long time since the last both segment x ray I did.
But I remember that after LL my tibias were only about cm less than femurs.
Right now a 30 pants has exactly my inseam length.

As about wingspan I never measured or care.
I have a very wide back and normal arms length for about an 1.70cm height guy so no big deal with my current height.
My chest diameter is 118cm however.
