Are you confounding vegan and vegetarian?
Also, the study didn’t control for any of the other variables of his diet for example low sugar intake. You can eat as much vegetables as you like, if you eat a lot of sugar, your diet is still unhealthy.
Even if the paper holds for vegan there is still a difference in living longer and living health. That’s why I stated the health span, too.
I really recommend reading the book. Its evidence is based not only on large cohort studies like this one, but also on other sources like centennial studies, biochemical pathways etc. It is probably the best source for understanding what food does with our bodies as of today.
