I think before you jump on this guy for not having enough evidence to support his claims, I think it might make more sense to acknowledge that there are huge holes in our understanding of nutrition. In light of this, Soylent, as well intentioned as they may be, comes across like the folks who used to say that baby formula was all a child needs to be at its healthiest in the 1960s. You have to admit what science backs Soylent as healthy compared to food that is not processed as merely macrobiotic chemicals is notoriously lacking.
