You have a valid point. But looking at world HSR trainset designs, not many have low floors. Talgo trainsets, because of their unique wheel design, is it. All those standard height trainsets with traditional bogeys have high floors over the bogeys.
Another reason the Talgo trainsets could be very popular in America, not having to build high station platforms everywhere. But I believe California HSR would build dedicated high platforms for HSR if required.
I believe Amtrak would too.
