This situation has irritated me for years, and I'm glad to see the Treasury is finally being forced to address it. We managed to understand our coins should be different sizes, but it never dawned on the designers to extend that thinking to bills. Even with most of the world's currency different sizes, it takes this to get our government on the same page.
Such different bill sizes would help eliminate confusion and fumbling even for the optically-enabled individual, and eliminate unfortunate accidents such as accidentally handing a stripper a trillion dollar bill.
