Sorry for the repeat questions but I'm not too knowledgeable on this; I thought BMI would have more false-positives (very muscular people for e.g.), but it seems you're saying false negatives are a greater concern.
Would that be people with extremely low muscle mass so they have a BMI that might only show as overweight but due to body fat percentage they're obese?
