Any reason to have it that way rather than shirtless? (My guess is that shirtless would be more accurate, but that you guys decided the privacy tradeoff was not worth it for the minimal accuracy gain.)

When you do it in the app, it does say that shirtless and briefs or boxer briefs are OK. I assume that fully nude would also be OK, but I guess they didn't want to go there. ;)

As trevyn mentioned, we have both options -- shirtless or a contour fitting shirt. We've found there's no accuracy difference.

You can't wear a normal, loose t-shirt or shirt; that unfortunately destroys our accuracy.
