This image from their daylight assessment doc is helpful to understand the scale and why so many objections have raised concerns about the student bedrooms in the development facing into Charter East classrooms.
The existing student accommodation on Burrow Rd (a couple of streets away) is 7 storeys tall + a service floor. No-one has their knickers in a twist about that building.
In any case, we have a housing crisis. We can't carry on with the "norm". That's what got us into this mess. If we are not going to build dense on ex-industrial sites overlooking a train station, then where are we going to build more housing? On playing fields?
