I am currently 155cm tall with 33.02cm tibias and 36.83cm femurs, so almost a 0.9 t:f ratio. What would be the best/safest ratio to distribute those 13cm? For example lengthening my femurs 8cm would stretch them over 20% their original length but would allow me to lengthen tibias only 5cm which is within the 15% safe limit. It also brings my ratio to about 0.85 which is more aesthetically appealing. However would it be smarter instead to stretch the tibias a little further to take the femurs back within the <20% safe limit? I've seen a few diaries on here of people successfully lengthening their femurs 8cm, including someone my height, so I wonder if that is actually the safer option than going beyond 5cm for tibias.
