What's odd about the article is that it seems to ignore its own reference to eye-height when it goes on to discuss scale ratios and repurposing larger-scale figures as giants. It's also insists that scale ratios only be calculated in English units! That bothers me.

Using "six feet" as the average soldier height is for miniatures measured in millimeters is already awkward, because it requires a metric-to-English conversion that can introduce rounding errors. Converting at the beginning of the ratio calculation will multiply the effects of rounding errors.
