Font Metrics & Point Size

$

Hey,

Here's a potentially silly question I have for you all...

In one of the typefaces I'm working on, I realized that the same point size is by default bigger than (almost) every other typeface I compared it to. I know x-height, ascenders and descenders can affect this, but I'm put off by the fact that none of the other cap-heights are as tall as mine.

Am I using weird or incorrect metrics? Is this an issue or just a design difference?

(image for reference, all typefaces set to 30pt Bold) 

Thanks!
