100% accurate. Caveat Emptor - the world does not understand even the smallest nuance that needs to take into consideration - in this case "guideline".
For example, the US DoD used BMI (DoDI 1308.03) to disqualify a friend of mine from joining. his actual body fat by DEXA? 7%, he was just short and very fit.
