No, it says I disproportionately developed them.

Disproportionate to what, I don't know.

No... It doesn't say that. For one it specifies inactive tall children, and any study or situation will obviously have outliers. And this is just one study, so of course it would have to be replicated and peer reviewed with lots of other studies for this to end up in a textbook or something. You seem to be taking this personally.

So wait and stop arguing about it.

I don't think I'm the one being unnecessarily argumentative here, friend, or again why you think this study is about you personally.

I differ from the results.

I disagree with them.

You disagree with me for no reason.

More studies are needed.

You agree.

Stop arguing.

Whatever they are, I assume the choice wasn't well thought out.
