I mean, you could use something taller but I don't see the point myself.
A taller filter could be more vulnerable to damage since our car already sits low-ish. Not a problem on a truck. I think a lot of guys here track with the stock PF64 oil filter without trouble.

However, at my next oil change I plan to change to the WIX 57502xp. Again, same specifications as the PF64 with a longer cannister, but not as long as the PF63E. --KLG--

They think it's longer means more filter media and there is thus some advantage to it, it's all in your head though. They think they sounds kool at QuikTrip on a Saturday nite talking about their filter prowess.

Bigger, higher capacity oil filter won’t hurt anything but you really are not gaining anything either.
