Height vs Length

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask for a clarification or a fix. In the dimensions section of classifying a book there is Height, Length and Thickness. Height and Length feel like the same thing to me, meaning the longest dimension of the measurements. Would it be wrong to want it to be Height, Width and Thickness? Again, sorry if this is the wrong place. I'm still not used to using the forums if we have any.

Closing. Not a bug. This has been discussed to death over and over.

Here's the most recent discussion if you want to add to it:
https://www.librarything.com/topic/367892 - it's a Recommended Site Improvement post, which is more appropriate than putting it in Bugs.

You can search Talk by using the site search at the top right (I searched height length) and then clicking the Talk facet in the lefthand menu.

You can work out which official groups to post in by going to Groups, scrolling down to Site Groups and reading the group descriptions.
