i cant quote you because your post is a quote for some reason.
anyway they arent exactly the same for every individual. not every 250 pound guy will have the same proportions or size. not everyone that has dorians water and bf will have his hardness. nothing is exact. this is not an argument. the correaltion between all the factors is positive hence the reason they are used as criteria. so how can you judge whos in better condition without seperation, cuts, or striations. simply hardness? when thats not constant either. there are too many variable ala genetics to hold a physhiology competition, the sport isnt judged like that.
hardness is not constant across everyone.
but i seperations will increase in every individual who loses water and bf. this is the only example i need. everyone gets more seperated and striated when they lose bodyfat and water. at the same rate-no thats genetics, size,shape etc but everyone does. hence that is why they are used as criteria in bodybuilding shows.
by your logic you cant decipher something unless its perfectly constant. lets throw out singing, dancing contests etc.. since its not constant.
i am still arguing that ronnie was better conditioned based on cuts, seperations,striations then dorian. what are the criteria that are judged if not those and hardness for instance?
agian the only thing that matters is that the correlation is positive, and everyone increases these factors as bf and water drops. perhaps not at the same rate becasue of umpteen other variables you nor i know. like the actually water and bf levels. if everyone did not there would be no standard nor a reason to use them. it is assumed that hard,sep,cuts,striations all should increase in an individual as bf and water decreases hence they compile conditioning.
