In the US, 32% of all deliveries are by C-section.
There are MANY reasons, beyond large babies, why a woman-- including a perfectly healthy one-- would deliver by Cesarean:
- Advanced maternal age
- Multiple babies
- Breech positioning
- Low infant birthweight
- Macrosomia (large baby), due to maternal diabetes OR other factors
- High maternal BMI
- Complications of vaginal delivery
- Previous C-section status
- A woman's personal preference to deliver this way
Additionally, the original study correctly took into account factors of maternal weight and gestational diabetes/macrosomia when running the statistics. It's not something they just forgot about.
Your conclusion that women have C-sections because they are unhealthy is decidedly NOT supported by scientific evidence.

My daughter was over 12 pounds at birth. No c-section. Mother was not diabetic.

One of my favorite TV blurbs was the factoid "67 percent of American women have never had a satisfying physical relationship with a Republican." It seems low to me, actually.
