1.9m is 6' 3", already in the 93rd percentile of US adult males according to this chart. https://preview.redd.it/oruqlgczepp91.png?auto=webp&s=cb797f... 2.1m is in the 99th percentile. Maybe you just have a lot of very tall friends.
Maybe. I used to like being tall, but seeing a colleague use a fixed height desk as a standing desk has made me reconsider.
Short people would seem likely to be comfortable in more places.
I think once you get past the 95th percentile in any metric like that things start to get more difficult. I'm not even that tall and I sometimes have trouble finding pants that fit me. I imagine there are probably similar difficulties on the other end of the spectrum being below the 5th percentile.
Pants get a large waist as they get longer. I’m not sure I’ve ever had a pair that fit.
Shoe get destroyed very fast, I’m not sure what it is and my feet aren’t that large (UK 12 or 13) but 6 months tops, and they are in pieces.

This is true, above 190 cm in height some things become issues. Above 2 m must be inconvenient pretty often.
