Should I install a 96” or 80” high closet door with 8’ ceilings?

We are mid-reno and I have to decide whether we install new 96” bypass frameless mirrored sliders (floor to ceiling) or if we frame it down to 80” (the space is open to the ceiling right now). The ceilings are 8’.

The 96” are marginally more expensive than the 80” but cheaper overall if you factor in the cost to frame, drywall, tape, and paint the area above the door. The space previously had 96” tall ones and it made the ceiling feel much higher, but I’m not sure if the difference in height with the bedroom door (80” high) will look strange.

I would love to do shake slab sliding doors with inset mirrors, but, alas, it’s not in the budget.

All opinions are appreciated!
