Why people argue about this
People often assume that all weight classes are listed in ascending order from lightest to heaviest, but they misunderstand how Armwrestling categorizes its competitors by gender, thinking it starts at 50 kg for both men and women instead of having separate ranges like +110 kg for men versus +80 kg for women.
