Why does /fit/ recommend exercises that have no function IRL?

do you know how leverage lifting works

you can lift a car by its bumper but can't deadlift the car's weight on a barbell

>>40949512
Push ups hold 64% of your body weight on your arms, so you should be able to bench press at least 64% of your body weight.

Do push-ups on a scale and get the peak weight
>>
>>40950889
Not comparable, however, if you can OHP your bodyweight then you can do a handstand push up or two

>can squat the bar
>can't squat 1pl8
