If anything, caloric restriction helps you stay alive longer.
Calories are just a unit of energy - what you consume usually matters more than how many calories you consume
Yeah but that's not the point of the comment you're replying to, which is stating a simple fact that is unchanged despite your argument.
there's a difference between "restricting calories" and "eating so little that you lack almost all the macro/micronutrients necessary for a properly functioning body"
one can have a calorie restrictive diet and still be eating junk food too
