The comment said life expectancy is higher.

So the question is - can you measure food safety from life expectancy?

Logically it seems not considering how many other factors affect life expectancy.

My comment is literally asks "how do you measure that?" and then I put out two statistics that you would assume would be correlated with food safety (along with maybe IQ, which China also does better in)

That’s what I’m getting at - how correlated with life expectancy do you think food safety is?

And can you think of the measurement of life expectancy might differ between countries making comparison challenging?

What I'm saying is that this purported food safety isn't manifesting itself through superior life expectancy, burden of disease or IQ measurements. Why do you think that is?

Because food safety is one of thousands of factors that affect life expectancy, burden of disease and IQ metrics?

So what do you think these other factors are?

For life expectancy - genetics, traffic safety, drug use, suicide rate, healthcare, how the data is categorized, etc, etc, etc
