Is 90mm right on the border line for shock length like?

I have measured spax, Gmax, bilstein, koni and Gaz standard length ones, all run out of travel past 90mm and sit on the bump stops. standards max out at about 65mm. The special short ones allow 120mm lowering with 20mm of travel and adjustable damping
