I also don't have complaints but then reading the thread I realized I'm on version 68. Apparently some of the issues are regressions introduced in newer versions.

But the average BMI is already counting obese and overweight people so it's biased if you want to compare lethality or numbers of years lost to a baseline. Consider if everyone was obese, with your calculation you would say the number

Another piece of land to the west before the Americas is the Azores archipelago roughly half way between Europe and Newfoundlannd. Maybe the bird came from there. This was known to Europeans well before Colombus trip.

> the number of years lost to obesity is not that much Compared to what? To merely overweight people, to normal BMI range of 18-25, or to optimal BMI range of 20-22?

What kind of privacy or app permission control am I missing with my 2015's Galaxy S6? Honest question, I've never felt the need to upgrade.

In many places nutritional data is required to be normalized to 100g. In the US it's "per-serving" which is super subjective and makes everything complicated to compare. I will say though that I prefer the way you normalize f

"Refusal on the ground of freedom of thought" is enough to convey exactly the same without loss of meaning. No need to mention religion, no need for religion-specific exemptions.
