because in another two years, Sam would have been Taller than Arnold and that would have been very weird to see-lol-lol

Wasn't he just as tall as Arnold in the final season?

that was the case with his friends too, all of Arnold's friends on the show were 3-4 years younger than Gary Coleman, and when Gary was 12 and the kids were 8-9, it worked, but by season 8, Gary was 18 and the kids were 14-15 and had all passed him up in height.
