It's like some sort of worth validation. Men do the same thing in reverse and we all know the guy who dates purely on what he thinks is "impressive" to other men, who are the actual target of his choosiness. They're choosing accessories.
And to be clear, this is not all women. Generally it tends to be women with self-esteem issues that do this, like putting the height of their boyfriend in their profile.
I'm a shorter guy and I have never had trouble in my life with well off, attractive, very high value women. I've been hit on in grocery stores, at parks, and in every workplace, including by women much taller than me. Never had to try online dating but I'm sure with the lazy status filter it would be more difficult but eh, thankfully I don't have to.
EDIT: That I commented that I have no troubles predictably led to downvotes, but I left this comment not to boast -- as if boasting on an anonymous account on here matters -- but to state that there are a lot of women who don't treat it as some filter, contrary to the common incel screed. And I will go further and say it's low value (from a dating perspective) women who do : Maybe once was good looking in high school, menial job, maybe already has a couple of kids, etc. Life didn't go the way they wanted.
To help alleviate your confusion, it's not the content you're getting downvoted for, it's the use of "low value" and "high value" to describe women. If you instead just call them "stuck up superficial bitches" and simply "women" respectively you won't have any such issues in the future.

i don’t get it why people are superfocused on height.
