Cubes come in more than one height, are you talking about the short ones?

Also, does having a standing desk stop you from talking frequent walks? Have you seen someone who advocates standing desks recommend not having any other mitigation?

I've never seen cubicle walls higher than ~5'. Most people (and we're talking software devs here, so men) are a fair bit taller than 5'.

I've had a couple of offices where the cube farm required me to stand on my toes to see over the top, and I'm 5'9".
