From a film perspective it was definitely something that was done because it looked cool to have Iron Man face off with this larger doppelganger and not because it made anatomical sense.

Yeah, the majority of the giant-oversized 'exo-suits' (this one, the Hulk-Buster, Lex Luthor's, etc.) make no sense. Unless one is a quadruple amputee, there's no way a human head would line up with the suit's helmet, while also aligning with the placement of extremities.

Whenever people talk about how cool these suits are without considering proportional arm and leg length in relation to head placement, I chuckle and roll my eyes. The only things that make sense are the giant mechs popularized in manga and anime due to their sheer enormity.
