I feel like the debate here is mostly between quantifiable nutritional stuff (like CICO), and unquantifiable bits of human psychology like "satiation." The unquantifiable stuff certainly affects the final outcome, but it's often presented with the same certainty and blanket application as biology.

The human psychology to eat a calorie deficit and not feel constantly hungry is sure as studiable as junk food addiction. Sure it isn't quite as simple as how much energy burning food items gives off, but it shouldn't be discounted.
