It does have a scientific answer, as has been shown in other comments in this thread.
If I ask "why are north Koreans shorter than south Koreans on average?" and someone responds with a wall of text explaining how it's just how it is and that's just life, they might as well have said nothing. "Why" questions usually have an answer, even if you don't know it, leave it to those that do and continue lurking.
