Skinny fat is not nearly as metabolically unhealthy as fat fat.

Fat fat can better survive the coming post-AGI apocalyptic famines.

Turns out it can also be useful during a personal apocalypse: having recently lost about 35lbs from emergency chest-cracking surgery, ended up pretty glad I wasn't at my leanest going into it (sadly, more of the weight lost was probably muscle wasting/deconditioning than fat stores, but on balance it was probably good I had at least 15lbs of fat stores to burn).

No argument here - just saying it's still not the endgame. Lean/ripped combo - now that's something I'd subscribe to/inject for regularly.

It’s actually worse in terms of metabolic disease, surprisingly.
