The idea is essentially maximizing nutrition while minimizing preparation. It's not really a way of buying food so much as a way of buying time.

In that case, why is it any better than just ordering some takeaway?

One, real convenience: a bottle in the fridge versus choosing, ordering, waiting, tipping. Two, takeaway WHAT? The common carry-out foods are not models of balanced nutrition. Often people who talk about Soylent say it saves them from a frequent round of pizza, hot wings, pre-made sandwiches, burger'n'fries.
