Height in centimeters? I don't entirely get this.
It's what most of the world uses. Tea-ville and Yeehawland are the only two that typically use imperial still.
Not just tea-ville, but former tea-ville colonies also measure human height in feet and inched. And former tea-ville colonies make up a large portion of the human populace.
I live in New Zealand, we don't use inches. In fact, you're required to use metric if you're selling a product, as that's our official measurement system.
