Except numerous people in this thread say they and people they know give their height in meters. So I guess it’s not really never then, huh? Just saying, try not to be so absolute about something so inabsolute.
That last one is my favorite because they say they only do it in centimeters and then immediately in the next sentence say they also give it in meters, lol.
The answer is if you round up to 1 digit, these heights are the same. So we give height in cm’s, because otherwise it’s not a usefull metric.

If they would really give their height in meters, they would almost all be 2 meters except for the very short people.

The difference is, they say meters but with two decimals, which makes it centimeters.
