I’ve done what you told me to do for half of my life, and like I said before - I have not noticed withdrawal symptoms whatsoever.

Then you are exceptionally resistant. Congrats. Caffeine withdrawal is super common.

I feel safe saying feeling no withdrawal from coffee isn't exceptional, it's borderline normal. From quick googling, only 10-20% actually have withdrawal symptoms that ruins your day. Up to 40-50% can have mild/noticeable effects, so it's safe to say I'm majority, not exceptional or special.

so by your own numbers, 50-70% do have withdrawal symptoms. While not lotto-win unique, you'd still be in a (large) minority, while most people have some symptoms.

The 10-20% are part of those 40-50%, like levels.
