That's largely because Tibetan puts the consonants in a simple vertical
stack with the vowels at the top and bottom. Khmer has to worry about
subscripts consonants with spacing ascenders to the left and spacing
ascenders to the right. Further, the top-to-bottom length of the
ascenders depends on what is in the stack above the body of such
subscripts.
