So how do we calculate Calories In and Out according to you? Becausr it sounds like that we have to deal with real world that really complex digestion, hormones, gut biome. You just start adding and subtracting numbers.
At that moment CICO dies, because you won't be able to measure anything and just have black box which you give whatever number makes sense in the end.
Not that it matters because the cells in human body use ATP not calories. As such calories are at best a proxy for how much food.
But that is issue with CICO, it's like magic box and we only have to count IN, as much at what makes the calculation correct later on, also with OUT. That is not very scientific. Because we are unable to reproduce anything.
