Also, if you equate his "teen" height as close to the current height that Dan Heng (who uses the male teen model in game) has right now, it's not that short/shota.
It looks around early teen-ish based on head-to-shoulder ratio (closer to Yanqing model than Dan Heng model). Given he was in the same role as Yanqing at the time, I suspect the intention was to have them at similar ages, then and now.
But even if I headcanon him to Dan Heng's comparative age, it still means for a good 50+ years of Quintet, Jing Yuan was basically a kid. So unless Dan Feng also was of a similar situation...the canon seems to be catering to the "Jing Yuan was the baby of the group" theory that fans unanimously agreed on somehow...
