Interesting idea, but to make that work, wouldn't humans need to be 2D
beings? Seems like we're volume limited, not area limited.

(BTW, since I know you're interested in mathematical analysis, have you
ever worked out what happens if you pack every human into a minimum
sized sphere or cube? Pretty interesting.)
