Theu have limited space. The palm trees are just inteded as background. They could have made the people muuch shorter, but that would have made it difficult to give them more details. The workers are the main focus, so they are drawn/chiseled on first and then the palms were added to show an activity and fill in the background.

We're both just guessing intent though, right? Is there any evidence for either position beyond, "that's how I feel"?
I'd be happy to change my mind if someone informed on ancient Babylonian art weighed in, but right now we're both just asserting why we think the picture asserts our interpretation with no basis.
