What are the engineering factors that lead them to choose that? I assume they don't have a lot of tunnels. And I guess it would limit high-speed turns, or at least require more banking for the same margin of safety. What advantages do tall trains have compared to long trains? Smaller train station platforms? Must be more than that.

All they've got is "has a backpack" and "running away". It's just like past time!
