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

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 difference is, they say meters but with two decimals, which makes it centimeters.
Well no, it makes it meters, because they're saying "meters" and the number is in meters. Yes it's easily convertible to centimeters, you just move the decimal point. But to say "meters but with two decimals so it's not meters" is obviously, comically, inaccurate.
