Don't get me wrong you could be ST14 and strong for your size, but you size would still be quite 'big' for an acrobat. I.e St14 is strong for lots of sizes.
It's important not to overlook the fact that ST 14 comes with HP 14. Hit points are absolutely a measure of mass. That's why they effect your inertia and momentum (Slam damage, Falling Damage, etc...).

So if you want "strong for your size" it's usually more accurate to buy some Lifting and Striking St.
