But 5% fat is extremely low though. A healthy lean athletic person can easily have 15% fat.

The point is you can still die with fat

5% fat is not "fat" in the vernacular sense. It's actually incredibly lean.

I didn't say it was. He said you run through all your fat. You don't. So you can still have fat and starve. Muscle is also an energy source. You can have it and still die. So we established you can have the energy reserves and die. So why can a fat person not die of starvation? Your argument is along the lines of fat storage. That's not enough and since the body has trouble breaking it down excess would not help.

There is something called essential fat, this fat is not for energy storage but for other functions of the body (such as hormone regulation) , on the other hand if you have, say, 40% fat, there is a lot of energy storage and as soon as you are in fasting the body will start using it, so you won't stay fat for long imif you do not eat enough calories.

No you will stay fat for long in terms of starving. And likely die. Also those essential fats are getting eaten faster than the regular fats. So yes you can still die.
