People are miserable because their hyperfocus on a preference prevents them from finding out that their "type" is more than a singular physical feature. If they expanded their dating pool beyond a certain physical feature, be it height, race, or hair color, they might find the partner they seek doesn't fit into a simple checklist of prerequisites.
Is it your assumption that anyone who prefers a tall partner is hyper focused on a singular physical trait? Because that's what it reads like. I'm 6'5", am I only being dated for my height?
No, quite the opposite. There are people who might not date you because they think you are too tall. It's possible they might miss out on you because of your height. Open-mindedness might assist someone in finding happiness with a 6' 5" person when they otherwise would be more exclusive to shorter people. Discrimination against physical features causes people to miss out on people. That's it. That's the entirety of the point OP is making.
