Couldn't this just lead to the same problem directed at different people? Some girls are indeed tiny, even without eating disorders or low self esteem, etc. etc. If they're no longer allowed to see themselves as mannequins, it's just discriminating against a different group.
Trust me, I know Barbie is super-bad for people's view of women, but if we're talking about 'real' women, we need to cover the full gamut. While Barbie IS impossible, size 1 isn't; for some small percentage of women, that's their natural, healthy size. (Maybe they're 4'6", but they're still women)
