That’s an overly reductive analysis based on generalized whole body doses from (external generally) ionizing radiation, and not relevant to absorbed isotopes and internal radiation.

There is a reason one of the first things handed out during a nuclear accident is potassium iodide pills, and it’s not to protect against gamma radiation.
