Different sites report different blockchain sizes. Some of that might be explained by base-2 or base-10 sizes, but that's not enough to explain the large difference between the extremes.

Is there a site that accurately reports in bytes both the raw size and Core's on-disk size (without the UTXO set)?

201.57 GB (= 187.72 GB2 if it's GB10) - BitInfoCharts (block 527,582)
178.99 GB (= 192.18 GB10 if it's GB2) - Coin Dance
171,292 MB (= 179.61 GB10 if it's MB2) - Blockchain.info (updated once per day)
161.20 GiB (= 173.08 GB10) - Bitcoin.com
