Daily reminder that BMI measurements alone is far more likely to fail to detect obesity than falsely detect it, when compared to other body fat determination methods.

Second daily reminder that BMI is mostly a cost saving tool, and basically, you'll know a fatty when you see one. Doing a real test costs time and money, but punching your height and weight into some 200 year old neurodivergent frenchman's formula is free.
