I’m....not sure how much better i can phrase that question ?

It was concise, contained all the information needed for an answer, it could even be a single yes or no.

If you have an example of how that could have been asked in a better way, I’d be interested in seeing it.

There was no reference to my thoughts on the overall theme, the question is only loosely related to that theme.

If it helps, i don't care at all about the overpopulation classification or anything to do with it.

Is it easier if i remove all references to the theme? Let's try this :

Doesn't directly proportional mean both metrics being compared need to track each other?

I didn't tell you to rephrase anything. Let's end this here.
