Excuse me for listening in on this conversation, @dandays & @jacey.boldart, but I quite believe your theory Jacey!
I may be opening up a hornet's nest here, so please forgive me, but I'm of the opinion that thin/normal people are being penalized for being thin/normal when their luggage is just 1 or 2kg overweight. All travellers need to step on that scale together with their luggage before thin/normal people get penalized for carrying a little more in their luggage, and not their butts.

I get it @lizelle, an overall weight total per passenger/possessions, instead of the individually.
It did make me laugh to read it though. Can of worms for sure. I am not one of the thin people, but I do understand the issues all the same.
I'm glad it made you chuckle dear Jacey, I did not mean to be mean😅
Hopefully, no one listens in or this could end up in a boxing match!
Believe it or not, there are no less than 17 weight classes in boxing, and I'm mortified that I'm classed a welterweight, at least not in the unlimited class😉
I didn't take it as mean at all. :)
There's a comedian that is overweight that does a piece of a comedy skit about how he hates to fly, but in his business, sometimes it is impossible to avoid it. He was going to board a private plane and the steward asked him how much he weighed and he said "Why do you want to know?" ...and he was told that they needed to know how much everyone weighted so they would know how much fuel to put in the plane to get them there. He said he turned to the steward and said "FILL IT UP !! "......ha ha.... he said he would hate to go down somewhere because some fat women hedged her numbers. It was pretty hilarious.
Hahaha Jacey, I'm sitting here all by myself cackling; I can just picture it!
I know you did not see it as such, but I could not resist throwing in a homograph;)
Yeah, ok, Barbie secret's safe with me.
😄
Don't you ever apologize for opening up a hornets nest or can of worms or any of that page, you hear me?! I responding with crabs RIGHT NOW!
I'd hate to be pinched by a crab's claw, so I'm running away.
