So why is it a weird request? To me it seems logical that the industry wanted to know how the WHO came to its conclusion, exactly because those other bodies all came to a conclusion which was the opposite of the WHO's.

Weird in the sense that it's usually would be the other way around and that a FOIA would be used to uncover some "coverup".

This time it seems that there might be some political reasoning behind it there were issues about this matter handled at the WTO (not WHO) before especially between the US and China.
