i definitely understood that you weren't personally asserting that it was true.

but for me, skepticism of blaming fatness for medical things is so incredibly rare in the world that it's hard to see fatness being listed plainly (without explicit critique) without it seeming like a reinscribing of it. it's like... hmm... the power lies SO MUCH on the side of blaming fatness for medical woes that even a technically neutral listing tips towards the status quo. there may not exist a neutral way to list it without to some degree supporting it.
