      Space is not applicable. You are cohesive mass and you are bargaining to get all of it to one place. That’s the discussion, nothing about volume

        there are lots of factors that go into airline travel pricing, and volume is absolutely one of them. that’s why they keep cramming the seats closer and closer together. So if a 6"6 person has to pay more to fly they should at least get more space than a 5" person.

                so you’re saying that a 6’3" person and a 4"2 with the same body fat% weight the same?

                  No but I will say you are doing a good job moving the goalposts. The article is pretty about weight

                    Overly reductionist and unhelpful. They asked a legitimate question and avoiding it because you don’t agree or like it for some reason isn’t helpful.
