true they represent an 'ideal' which will surely vary from person to person (surely not my personal ideal, but I digress), but rarely does anyone considered 'over X BMI number' do so intentionally...whereas a great many of those they're referring to go to great horridly unhealthy lengths to 'fit the designer ideal' for what amounts to a job. in order to curb this, I think those who support those designers have to indeed step up and say "uh...this isnt a good idea. lets change it" even if this particular method might not be the best idea.
but you make an excellent point. reversing descrimination doesnt make it a good thing in its own right.
