That's crazy talk. Plenty of other controlled diets, for which there are decades or centuries of experience, would be better 'baselines' for experiments than novel, radical Soylent.

Actual controlled experiments in diet are not currently blocked waiting for "a non-medical meal replacement that at least theoretically trie[s] to be everything you need".

In 10 years "eating the Soylent" might have a colloquial meaning very close to "drinking the Kool-Aid".
