In 2006...75.7 million (in the U.S.) were overweight, 78.3 million were normal weight, and 3.9 million were underweight.

I wasn’t saying they use it in the same way. I was saying that the number of overweight people is so much greater than the number of underweight, that it would be incredibly unlikely for it to cancel.
The data that got brought forward suggest that nearly no overweight person actually uses the data.
If 0.5 million overweight and 0.5 million underweight people use the data than the average is zero.
