I've always thought that the power of his keyblade and the light of his heart are what give him the strength and ability through the magic of the keyblade, hence "the keyblade chooses its master" it sort of becomes one with its wielder. That's where he gets his strength and crazy moves from, not muscles. Sora is an underdog hero, he's 5 ft tall (literally, game model measurements), skinny, dorky and clumsy, wears funny clothes and has a kind heart. If he was tall and buff it just wouldn't be the same.

They didn't, I am nearly 18 and an Australian who is a male. I was told by a growth doctor (endocrinologist) that I am physically/pubescently a year older than my chronological age and am not deficient in any way. I shave every morning otherwise I have stubble, I have a goatee and a deep voice. I am 5 ft 4. I think when I was 14 I was probably around Sora's height as well. The average height of a fully grown male is 5 ft 7. Cloud Strife is 5 ft 7 (height details were released with the FFVII game in the manual), he is also 21 in FFVII and 23 in AC. There has not been any indication nor has he been noted to have grown between 21 and 23. If you go on 'finalfantasy.wikia' it intends that Cloud Strife is ultimately 5 ft 7, ever since revealed by the first FFVII game.

Due to my curiosity on the matter, I have spent a good few hours deducting this axiom. I compared (kh2) Sora's height to Auron's (who is noted to be officially 6 feet tall by square enix), positioned right next to him, equal stance, none of them bending/hunching or anything; both game models in the underworld. I used a completely accurate measure (using digital measurement) to determine Sora's height in comparison to Auron's. I then gathered all game models of Sora, Riku and Kairi from 'Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep', 'Kingdom Hearts' and 'Kingdom Hearts II' - then I compared using digital measurement. I can now confidently deliver to you the correct and exact heights of the characters as they have been portrayed- In 'Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep': 5 year old Riku is 3 ft 10 4 year old Kairi is 3 ft 4 4 year old Sora is 3 ft 6 In 'Kingdom Hearts II': 16 year old Riku appears 5 ft 8 though his model is a little hunched so he's probably 5 ft 9 15 year old Kairi is 4 ft 7 15 year old Sora is 5 feet tall In 'Kingdom Hearts': 15 year old Riku is 4 ft 10 14 year old Kairi is 4 feet tall and finally... 14 Year old sora is 4 ft 5 So yes, Sora is indeed shorter than 4 ft 9 in Kingdom Hearts 1.
