Right again. Standards are standards.

Sure.

Because if you have a general who's among the best in the world at military strategy, or overseeing the development of weapons programs, or managing the logistical demands of one of the largest organizations on earth, but is either disabled or older or just predisposed to being a little overweight in their older years, the best thing to do with that accomplished and talented military professional is fire them and replace them with someone who isn't as good at their job but runs a faster mile and looks good.

You know - because it's more important to judge people on their physical appearance and whether they can lift heavy things than whether they're good at the job of being a general or admiral.
