Of course 5% higher is practically meaningful. If group A is 160cm tall on average, 5% higher means 168cm tall on average. This difference can be easily observed by normal person. How would anybody think this difference is meaningless?

If you're designing furniture, cars, or clothing where every centimetre counts, sure, but in general practice that's almost irrelevant.

Does this affect things like who you should invite to a party? What effect does this have on ordinary life?
