Isometric rpg games - Why r The Characters Always The Same Size ?

I've missed out a lot of quality titles over the years .
Diablo, Baulders Gate, Icewind Dale, Neverwinter Nights 1st...etc...Fallout 
...etc..Pillars Of Eternity ..etc..
Almost entirely because I can't get into the small characters display style.
I'm constantly aware that I can't see them or what there doing properly.

I've been roaming around looking at many titles & I'm puzzled why the
characters are all shown about the same (little) size.
Is there some graphic 'standard' these games are designed to ?
