Why is this a problem? Two reasons: 1) Height correlates with sex, and sex is an independent correlate of mortality -- men die younger. 2) Height is an independent correlate of mortality _even when you control for sex_ -- tall people die younger.

wouldn't "BMI-overweight due to THE MOOSCOOLZ" be a professional sportsman and thus at notably elevated medical risk no matter how you cut?

That's a good question. I'm not sure whether 'fitness' is more of a positive than 'juicing/trauma' is a negative.
-
well, most of things I know about sports medicine is from people I meet at sex parties, but IIRC there are a LOT of biomed issues on all sides of "professional sportsmanship" so "obese-ish BMI but not due to fat" is still at risk cohort

So much for 'eat right and exercise'!
