I had read this hypothesis before, but a quick scan suggests a number of studies vindicate diet drinks, e.g. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27934644/

I used to drink a fair amount of diet and mostly quit because of the caffeine and the possibly tooth enamel damage.
It was surprising the amount of concerned friends who were convinced the stuff would kill me. I really looked for any hint of evidence that it might, and aspartame keeps winning.
I'm off it now anyway, but it does seem to just be nicely flavored (slightly acidic) caffeine water.
