    not in all areas...

    I'd probably give bench press to the shorter guy. (less range of movement, so more reps.)

    Its a matter of Biomechanics

    In most exercises the guy with shorter limbs will have a shorter moment arm therefore his muscles have to produce less newton force in order to move the same weight, whereas for the guy with longer limbs the opposite is true.
