In other words, deliberately limiting the caloric intake when increased caloric consumption is a potential effect makes the study useless. It's not a control at that point. It's an artificial brake on the study.

The issue is not the BEHAVIOR. The issue is the physiological response to the artificial sweetener.
Behavior is not simply governed by every single impulse our body gives us. Just because I'm horny doesn't mean I'm going to try to **** anyone I see. Similarly, just because I'm hungry, I'm not going to just eat everything I see. Both are signals I get from my body, but the outcome is based upon choices I make.
