Oversized pipe running from the meter to the project can cost extra for sure, but its a one time expense. If more capacity is needed at a later date your safe. No need to run new pipe. Larger pipe pretty well stops any worries on flow rates or pressure drops. Once you have the pipe ran its easy to adapt it down to the house connection pipe size and the size needed at the water meter. 2 inch pipe does not require a 2 inch meter.
Point taken. If that's the idea, thats all well and fine. But if the plan is to use a 2" meter along with that 2" pipe....that will continue to cost more, month over month.
At this point, we just don't know
