People have suggested that shorties buy capris, but if you're 5'2, regular capris would look half way between capris and regular pants. And the rise will still be too long. Suit jackets are a problem too...

Bullshit. "Much easier"? All we have to do is look?
I can't get a dress shirt long enough to tuck in under my suit and stay in. I'm only 5'7. The rise on pants is way too low on me in nearly every single pair of pants and particularly jeans, so much so that if I wore them i'd hear the phrase "just say no to crack". And I don't shop in juniors anymore, so it's not like i'm trying to dress too young.
I don't think petite people have the corner on the difficult-to-find-clothes-that-fit-market and you really have no basis to say that.
So many stores have petite sections. Very few have tall sections or even tall sizes that you can order.
But don't say average height people have is MUCH EASIER.
