Perhaps because that has been a significant part of the propaganda campaign against N. from the time of his life. We might ask why, at this time, the issue even is even raised, except to somehow denigrate N. We don't generally discuss the heights of Bernard Montgomery or William Pitt, or other historical figures. (Well, Lincoln height is generally brought up, but not to his disadvantage.)
