Similarly: When my career-military ex husband was on recruiting duty, he and all of the other recruiters at a conference (state-wide?) were told they were "overweight" by the height-weight tables of some insurance guy there. Every last one of them had to pass the PT test to remain in the military and could not be overweight. (The military accounts for such possibilities and has an alternate "tape test" standard which generally works well for those guys who are "overweight" due to bodybuilding -- or did at that time. I don't know what the current standards are.)
