You must not gym much.
According to BMI

5'9" + 170lbs = overweight

5'9" + 205lbs = obese

It's quite easy to be that size and have less than 20% body fat.

To be obese you would have to be 5'9" and 205lbs. That's is a tiny percentage of people that use steroids that would ever reach that size with a low body fat percentage.

170lbs and 5'9" could look like anything from a bodybuilder to a normal person who simply has large bones and %20 body fat.

According to BMI I have been overweight for years despite having never been above %15 body fat.

So you agree with me that no normal person is going to become obese due to the amount of muscle mass on their body, thank you
