The problem here is "What is realistic?"
I live on the west coast. Body builder types, wide muscular shoulders and small waists are a norm here.
I visit family in midwest, and average body types change, thicker midsections, etc. Who decides whats real?
Also, this is a fantasy/movie pirate world. Realism went out the door with voodoo dolls!
They should have added the features, instead of changing them, allowing pirates to truly make the pirate they want, and not be limited by others narrow sightedness.
