For example the 5' woman cannot lift the 6' man,from under the armpits,no matter how strong she is. It's technically impossible. Or give the man a piggyback ride. His legs would touch the ground,i guess.

The only possible lift for shorter lifting taller is shoulder ride (but yet it won't be like a proper shoulder ride,because man's legs will hang on the air,because it'll be impossible to wrap his legs,and put them on the girl's back)
Thats is nonsense, with the exception of an armpit lift, which is not very common on this site at least. Your example is ridiculous - but even so a smaller woman can easily give a tall man a piggyback, just look through the main thread. And it is actually easier for a smaller woman to lift a tall guy OTS than for a taller woman since he will almost fall onto the shorter womans shoulders. Your idea that simply because one woman is taller than another she will be better at L&C is daft.
