    i wonder if this rounding also exists in metric countries, i could see people writing 190cm if they’re 189.

      I honestly don’t know how tall I am. I know I’m taller than last time I was seriously measured, but I don’t know by how much and I don’t care. But everyone shrinks during the day anyway. Measuring height to precise centimeters has just a little more sense than weighing someone with precision of ⅒ of kilogram. I have basically no chance but to estimate and possibly round.
