Thank you, this more of less boils down the issue. New Hampshire likely doesn't have a meaningful level fewer bodybuilders than say Mississippi in a way you will see on the population level. I get folks' aversion to BMI. Fat shaming has unfortunately only increased despite it being more and more likely to be overweight which has negative impacts and doesn't lead to positive behavioral change on the whole. There is also no need to throw out metrics where they are useful and when we understand the limitations.
Similarly, as a person that used to be in cognitive performance research, it's both fine to be skeptical of individual results and realize that these tests are very useful for studying cognitive decline over time.
