I don't really understand your genetics argument. I think you might be referring to fat in general, which I don't think is what an airline company would go by. I'd be more inclined to go by overall weight, rather than fat, because it would be unfair to charge a person with a higher BMI, but lower weight than you a greater price. It's not in defense of fat people, it's just common sense.
