My interpretation is that weight is an overrated measure of health.

It's really not. Weight, atleast if you control for muscle weight, is an extremely good predictor of health issues at almost every level. It's a huge problem for your body both in many complicated internal ways, all the way to simple mechanical ways, putting increased stress on most of your joints and bones.
