I'm getting a monopod for the first time and why the heck are all so short? Im 5'11" and want to use my viewfinder without hunching constantly, yet most monopods max out below 160cm (5'3")

Pic related is from Ulanzi, and whilst they are an el cheapo brand, the high-end monopods are still pretty short; some are actually shorter. Is this cause I"m expected to use a ball head or lens ring?

I might just have to buy one of those 2-in-1 travel tripods because the centre stock of those usually works as a tall monopod.
