And yes. Zwift does seem to penalize people a bit on the flats for being tall compared to real life. If you want to ride a virtual race where the physics simulation seems to be closer to real life in terms of speed for power on the flats, try RGT.

Being 70kg and 170cm, I immediately notice a difference when I am trying to distance a large powerful rider on the flats switching back and forth between Zwift and RGT. On RGT I have to do relatively more w/kg to keep a gap.
