I have a hard time imagining an actual human being as hateful as you are. Why would you spending so much energy trying to make people feel bad about an issue they have?

I spent every ounce of effort I could muster last year to lose weight and dropped 36 kg, however there was never a point where that got easy to maintain, where my body wasn't screaming at me to eat. Crying oneself to sleep from hunger after walking 20000 steps per day is not how I could live the rest of my life. I understand that that is not the case for you, but you must understand that hunger and food cravings are not the same for all people.

There are people literally starving to death because they can't force themselves to eat and of course many more people eating until it kills them. How can you not realize that you happen to be naturally in between these two extremes?

Basically, you walking 20,000 boosts your maintenance calories up, since

deficit = tdee (maintenance) - intake

Once you've lost the weight, there is no need to maintain "deficit" to stay at that weight when you do not understand something as simple as this. I’ve no doubt what you did was perhaps over-restrictive, which made you suffer.

which means no you do not need to walk 20K steps for life, nor you need to perma lower your calorie intake, you just need to eat at maintenance calories after getting to your target weight.

They are rare, so rare i don't run into them at all.
