Then the recipe will adapt, simple as that; just like code does. He's not trying to make this a highly optimized formula, he's trying to make it a widely used base platform with the minimal required pieces that work across platforms. I think there is enough overlap between people we can find a common formula that will work for 90% of people on a 90% of meals basis (regular food already does this). Yes, the current formula probably will not survive contact with the broader reality, but then he'll just make a v2.

And until v2 happens? What is with malnutrition, or possible worse effects? When it comes to my body, my health and these subjects, I tend to err on the side of safety, instead on the side of something, that is "scientifically tested" like soylent. I know, with our food industry nowadays it is, that we are the rats in the longtime testing lab. But that is the reason, I changed my foodsources. And it is the reason I would never buy soylent. The other reason is, that I really see more in food, then giving fuel to my body. It is an experience of cooking, of creating, of being creative, an experience of taste, of texture, a social experience and so much more. So there you have the two reasons. The missing scientific rigor/testing. The arrogance, to believe, what he did is best for all and better then everything till now. And my personal take on food.
