In this case, it seems like it only makes a small practical impact.

~300 Calories a day is huge though! It only sounds small if you don't realize what a safe calorie restricted diet deficit should be.
I don't think 300 is anything less than huge. I agree there. But that's for going all the way to a keto diet. In terms of practical impact, I'm thinking of it more in terms of bang for your buck. If you make the kind of change I expect most dieters will make, then you'd only see a small fraction of the 300 delta, which is where I'm coming from.
