BTW, looks like shorter people live longer, so height inequality may actually favor shorter folks on balance.
From the link:
The authors suggest that the differences in longevity between the sexes is due to their height differences because men average about 8.0% taller than women and have a 7.9% lower life expectancy at birth.
From the link:
Is this a correlation/causation thing?
You’re suggesting the authors may have forgotten to control for gender when concluding that shorter people live longer?
Not suggesting, just asking. I’m actually somewhat confused by their wording, reading it out of context.
