>>Is the problem the taller builders are having to do with legroom or
headroom? Or a combination of both?<<

Combination. Depends on your ratio of leg length to trunk and head length.
Long legs might be more of a problem but the XS fuselage has probably
alrgely solved this. I haven't sat in one.Not that tall anyway at 5 foot
91/2 and shrinking. 
Being overweight, ie fat ;-( is a distinct disadvantage. Having said that
Dave, my co owner, is about 16 stone and 6 foot 1 or 2 and copes OK. No
complaints after 5 hours.
You really need to sit in one.
Graham short on wisdom, it got used up by the age of 14 {{;-0)
