In part your frustration is because you don't understand how AI works. These are not logical reasoning engines. You can create two chats and ask it the same question and get different answers. I did this with something about graphics cards and two different sessions, without memory in play, one said the RTX 5090 was the most powerful graphics card on the market today, and the second said it was the RTX 4090.
Interjecting wokeness aside with "well akschually it's because..." is one thing. But getting curiously 'correct but not' answers is because of how LLMs work. They used to make everything up. They're improving in their accuracy and reduction in hallucinations, but it's confusing you because you think it's much more than it really is.
Also I'll say that when dealing with that 'obesity rate', there is value in absolute size, because per-capita numbers and things like that can be very badly skewed by extremely tiny populations.
Example: the YOY murder rate on Tonga is around 1/100k. But in 2018 there was a ridiculously silly spike:

In 2018 there was a double-murder: https://www.samoanews.com/regional/teen-sentenced-life-murder-couple-tonga
Now while that doesn't account for the full 9/100k, that means that that one singular act would've alone doubled the murder rate for the entire island (the population of Tonga is basically 100k so that makes this easy).
So per-capita is misleading in very tiny populations. Does that apply to obesity? Not really. But in general it actually does sometimes need context.
This is why you should >>>>NEVER<<<< trust anyone who only gives you information via percentages or words like 'double'. People who don't have data to back up percentages will just use percentages. People who don't have percentages to back up data will just give you data. If you see that, you're probably being manipulated.
Also I'm going to point out that if you ever find yourself 'arguing' with an AI, you're falling in to the mind trap. AI doesn't care. It doesn't listen. Your arguments are not recorded and processed and will change nothing about future interactions. Do not be deceived by these enigma engines.
