Thanks @DaveP043 for the updated info/link.

I meant my question "who are they". I bet it would have not taken too much trouble to leave that snarky remark unwritten and just give out the real information, for which I thank you.

Boy, I'm not cut out for a world in which saying "I'm pretty sure you can figure that out," put a big grinning emoji 😄 to signify how lightly I'm taking it (and how you should take it), and then immediately — in the same post — both link to and quote the information that answers your question counts as "snarky." Was it the emoji?

My use of "they" was short-hand at the time because I didn't remember specifically who had said it and was on my phone, so I didn't want to look it up (and didn't need to to make the point I was trying to make). So even if you, @Ruler, didn't want to find the information yourself as to who "they" were, I answered your question by both linking and quoting the post after you asked who "they" were.

Someone coughed during Aaron Judge's impact moment, he still hit his 61st home run.  He didn't ask for a re-do.  Point being, as a golfer, don't let little sounds bother you... play your shot.

That's not comparable at all, no.

Maybe not so accurate. Though, I don't have a reference to if it is good or not. A study showed for at least overweight or obese people, they are 73% accurate.  It is probably a decent starting point but should not be deemed as accurate. 27% is significant when talking about caloric intake. Let's say the adage is, remove 20% to lose weight. Well, if the equation 20% off in one direction, you could be at 0% caloric deficit. It is probably better than just randomly picking a number.  Here is a good video on metabolism. Here is the full episode with show notes and citations.  How to Boost Your Metabolism & Burn Fat Discover science-backed methods for boosting metabolism and achieving sustainable fat loss, with expert insights on exercise, nutrition, and... The four factors to your TDEE, total daily energy expenditure.   First, EAT - Exercise Activity Thermogenesis. This makes up 0-30% of your daily expenditure. Best way to measure is with a wearable heart rate monitor across the chest. Though they all tend to overestimate caloric burn.  Second, NEAT - Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (non-structured activity, i.e. fidgeting, moving around, going up stairs at work, walking to the store from your car).  This makes up 5-30% of your daily expenditure. Best way to measure is something like a Fitbit which counts steps. Really this is a lot of movement between bouts of resting/sitting around. It will not account for things like fidgeting or chewing gum (yes burns calories).  Third, TEF - Thermal Effect of Food (the energy required to digest food). Even though carbohydrates and protein have the same calorie per gram value. Protein requires more energy to digest.  *makes up 8-15% of your daily expenditure. Fourth, RMR - Resting Metabolic Rate *makes up anywhere from 40% to 80% your TDEE pending how much of the first three account for your daily expenditure. If you have a sedimentary lifestyle, it makes up closer to 80% of your TDEE. Per Dr. Andy Galpin, who's career is sports science, and a PhD is Human Bioenergetics, says this is very hard to estimate. RMR can range from like 1000 to over 3000. It generally scales with body size but not always. There was a paper done showing that pending lean muscle mass %, for athletes, the RMR per kg of body weight can be up to 145% difference (high percentile versus low percentile). Maybe for people who live a more sedimentary lifestyle might be more consistent since lean muscle mass is in the very low percentile.
