My point consistently been that protein needs are overestimated

Peter Attia disagrees:

"The more I research this topic, the more I find that the RDA (recommended daily allowance) of 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight is simply not sufficient"

The RDA is very rarely discussed anywhere online that I’ve seen, if at all.

While it is an official statistic, it isn’t representative of the average person’s idea of protein needs.
