I use 165mm cranks because the part of my leg from hip to knee is rather short compared to the part from knee to ankle. If I use longer cranks my front leg is not in the correct 90 degree position when the cranks are horizontal.
This can be countered with a zero setback seat post as well, but it feels like my saddle position will get way too front without setback.
