@Someone

His horns, assuming they are his Faunus Features would be his ONLY features, so I have no idea why the 'for starters' applies here in the first place.

I think they make sense from a Biological standpoint. When I think of a bull's horns, I think of those horns as wider and more spread than Adam's, it's true, but from a biological standpoint, they make sense. Bulls have a very muscular neck and a much larger and thicker skull than humans do; things that could support those massive horns. Horns of an actual bull's proportions (wide, long, and splayed) would put a considerable strain on his muscles, especially in his neck and shoulders, so I see the horns turned inwards so as to minimize the stress they put on his neck. As the horns are centered above his head, the fall more in line with his body than horns that reach to his shoulders, so he has to do less work to move his head around. It's more like he's wearing a crown instead of him strapping two dumbells to the side of his head.
