I've often thought thin and low are desirable like on vintage ukuleles. I've got some German Brass fret wire that I used on a UBass and it worked well. Just a step up from fretless.
 
Jescar. Narrows 37053?

Dosnt higher fret make a longer sustain slide. Ive noticed thin low profile frets cant get a good sustain sound when sliding fret to fret. Or even a good loud hammer on/off
