I'm glad that this study was published -- it seems interesting -- but I hate the controls chosen. Coconut is a weird oil. It contains a lot of lauric acid, a fatty acid found in high amounts in coconut, palm kernel oil, and pretty much nothing else. You should also compare soybean to a normal oil, like olive oil, palm oil, duck fat, butter, lard, canola, or something else.
Imagine you want to evaluate the effect of switching to [insert your favorite language here] on programmer productivity, so as a control language for comparison, you choose Haskell. Doesn't that sound just a little weird?
