Weight is usually the determining factor in any fight. And small people usually have a complex on top. So you are just making them more aggressive in the end?

Also height does matter but only because taller people have longer arms and can punch you from farther away

This would create shorter people with longer arms, completely upsetting the meta

The lack of proportionally between the arms and legs would be its own special hell

I think shorter people are faster which is probably more significant.

Small and aggressive, like a chihuahua.
