Regarding your first point, I've lived in small apartments with high ceilings (12 ft) and small apartments with low ceilings (~8 ft, if I remember correctly). The low ceiling'd one actually had higher square footage, but felt noticeably smaller and more cramped.

Yeah, the space isn't useable, but that doesn't mean it isn't useful to the psychology of the human's occupying it.
