I’m not tall, so I can’t comment on specific fit beyond noting that higher rise bars (50mm+) are increasingly common and WeR1 said they feel it’s easier for folks to get higher than lower in terms of fitting the most riders.
Lower and wider bar setups (along with shorter reach and stack numbers achieved by sizing down frames) are - without a touch of joking/humour - the next trend in mountain biking. So at 6’2” and looking to be on with-it, choosing between a Large and an XL is probably a bigger worry than Stack.
