It’s got to be a factor of leverage, and how base muscle you need to just function as a higher-leverage limbed person.
However, short limbed folk have an advantage in weight lifting, thanks to leverage. So whilst it makes sense that long limbed folk have more muscle mass to account for that, it gets interesting when you consider that trans women lose muscle mass with the loss of testosterone, and are moving those longer limbs around with reduced muscle mass, giving them the worst of both worlds.
they were meant to just play
Well sure, but you can’t “just play” with people who dramatically outclass you. By and large, people who can’t compete on equal footing with a sufficient number of peers tend to just not participate.
