No substitution required

- The given sentence uses "more taller," which is incorrect because "taller" is already a comparative form, and adding "more" is redundant.

- Option 2: taller is the correct choice as it correctly uses the comparative form without redundancy.

- Option 1: "much tall" is incorrect because "much" cannot be used directly with base adjectives for comparison.

- Option 3: "much tallest" is incorrect because "tallest" is a superlative form and not appropriate for comparing two people.

- Option 4: "No substitution required" is not correct because the original sentence has a grammatical error.
