Ketoer shitlord here (I started using it for cutting and just ended up staying keto for the most part since I liked it.) I don't disagree with anything you've shared. I will say that I find it incredibly frustrating how many low-carb / ketosis advocates will pretend calories aren't important in those dietary lifestyles. CICO still reigns supreme... even if ketosis makes it (somewhat unintuitively) easier to maintain your deficit. CICO rightfully isn't concerned with that.
