Ben,
That would eliminate a large proportion of the Australian male (and some female) population, including almost all AFL and NRL players, most of whom do not suit CASA's BMI tables.
As I don't, and haven't since I was playing rugby at school --- longer ago than I really want to remember. Didn't stop me accumulating a pocket full of licenses and 25,000 or so hours.
Those figures are nonsense, glad I never came up against such nonsense in early days, when the guy who sent me solo was nicknamed "Tiny", and not because he was ever going to be a jockey.
Hang in there!!
Tootle pip!!
