I'm not sure how Dr. Remillards article helps anyone pick a good dog food, basically she's saying that any dog food that has AFFCO's statement of feeding tests and says it's “complete and balanced nutrition” is a good choice. I think this is a starting place, not an ending place.

I'm kind of confused why you are saying, If people choose to follow opinion rather than the reality of science based, evidenced based clinical trials/outcomes, that is their decision and best of luck with that...." what makes you say this? What in the article makes you think this?
It does conflict. She says that carbs should be first in kibble and she explains why.
She also discusses the percentages of proteins.
