Dr Fung has addressed how the body compensates for low caloric in take. Calories in v calories out is a static model. The metabolic body is adaptive.

As for an opinion price, perhaps that area of the WaPo is more popular than printing that same article in the science or medicine section.

I forget how old I was when I thought "controversial" meant "they are telling the truth and upsetting people" but that definition still holds.
