1) Yes, if overfeeding or fasting insulin can dynamically change, but from my own high frequency testing it doubling *for no reason* under baseline conditions (unless already very low)- https://twitter.com/tednaiman/status/1293353143938379776

-would be something I'd find a little odd. Certainly there's a chance someone may have indulged more than usual right before the test, and that question is worth asking, but I don't think it warrants dismissal from that assumption alone. Many, many, many tests fluctuate rapidly-
-in the space of a few days if overfeeding/fasting. But people don't usually do this right before a test, and fluctuation while eating normally (in myself at least) I haven't seen huge unexplainable swings for no reason. A couple points up or down, maybe.
Lastly-
Lastly-
I would argue the opposite. I would much rather be obese with fasting insulin <10 than someone skinny with fasting insulin >10 (assuming eating normally before the test). TOFIs do exist and it is very possible to be hot while naked and hyperinsulinemic, or on the way there.
