ahh alright i did a bit of looking around and i found a few articles
after looking around it seems the midpoint argument seemed to be that somatotypes "exist" only in describing someone's natural body shape, and may not necessarily be representative of fitness traits
so somatotypes are still "real" but there is a lot of medical skepticism on the "traits" of each type
i'll have to read more on it; currently reading some physiology articles on britannica
