I believe this issue was introduced in 1.5.6; it worked properly in 1.5.4 and 1.5.5, IIRC.
So how it used to work was that, when scrolling between characters in the inventory screen, they were all rendered properly to scale, so that you could see that the various characters were taller or shorter than each other. Now, however, they all appear to be exactly the same height, and it isn't until you get them onto the battlefield (or walking around in settlements) that you can see their height differences.
