    Because finding sheets that fit them used to be terrible. Even in a college town, you’d have very limited options. I expect this is much easier now that online shopping is a thing, though.

      Yeah.

      But that’s not an excuse to force 10-20 some percent of the population to hang their feet of the end of the bed (and yes 5 inches makes that much of a difference)

        Oh, I agree with you. I was just answering why many college kids disliked the twin xl mattresses. That doesn’t mean they should quit using them in dorms.
