This is interesting but a huge problem with dietary guidance is that the body and its processes are hugely complex and understanding evolves over time. A year after that was published the American Heart Association gives contradictory evidence. One could trivially spend one's entire life chasing emerging science and receive for your efforts zero benefit while people trivially ignore obvious and clear guidance on basic matters like diet, sleep, and exercise that is unambiguous.

I like that one and it has good references. I could find more (Crisco and trans fats... duh) but I mean come on...
Seed oils like canola oil are manufactured and did not exist before 1900. They're totally unnatural and heavily manufactured with solvents, preservatives, high heats, deadorizers, coloring. Seed oils go rancid so fast without chemical processing and preservatives before they're bottled.
Do you want to cook with stable saturated fats in ghee that has been used for generations after generations - Or manufactured seed oil, first sold to the public as Crisco by P&G? Seed oils do not occur in nature, they are manufactured. Do you want to shove it down your gut until good enough studies prove it's safe or unsafe? Not me!
Vegetable oils. Good history here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Uqj35nHB0g&t=749s
