This is actually a very good point. Other studies found the general damage done by sedentary lifestyles lived by lots of us is irreversible and I don't think thee are lots of studies showing negative effects of light excercise in general. So trying to cope with obesity by not moving but instead just sitting and having cold (not sure if the article literally suggests it but there were definitely hints towards it) certainly goes against that.
