What is it like to put on a VR headset and play a game where the world is suddenly "built to scale"?

In (most) VR games your height is "fixed" to match the world you are in. Now I am 6'4" but been put in games before in VR and discovered....hey, I'm a bit shorter than what I'm used to. I was suddenly curious as to what someone with Dwarfism might experience.

Also, in VRchat you can adjust your height as you wish from "a few cm" to "5 meters" (roughly, it depends on the avatar). What's your experience when you CAN adjust your visual height in casual settings? Do you keep it closer to what you are "used to" (I do, I tend to prefer to be a bit taller than the base) or do you raise your height to something more convenient to interact with the world?

What are the differences (if any) between a streamer who wants to make money / get attention and a streamer who just wants awareness / interest in a concept?

After getting a nudge from a few people that what I am doing is unique enough to try streaming it, I am wrestling with my personal motivations, goals, and views on the idea of streaming.

I want to bring awareness to what I am doing in the hopes of more people adopting it, but I don't really want to bring attention to myself as a person. Sure I could not "show me" with a cartoon avatar but that would destroy my ability to properly communicate what I am doing.

I would measure success based more on people who say "that's cool, I want to do that too" rather than any personal gain.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to approach streaming from this mindset?

I'm asking this because most of what I read on streaming advise is all about "get/retain viewers, make money".

Thanks for any feedback.
