you just missed the entire point i was making... yes, energy in < energy out means losing weight.   BUT   reducing energy intake is more difficult for some people than for others due to their genetics.

genetics determines how much nutrients you absorb from things you eat, it determines how easily you feel hunger, it determines your baseline energy consumption.

genetics can absolutely make you more likely to gain weight.

Valve Built the Right Machine at the Wrong Time | An Analysis Of The Steam Machine And It's Polarizing Launch

look, i am not asking them to predict the future 8 months ago, ok. they had steam machine in development for years, it would be natural to arrange it for production before they announced it, right? and to setup production, it would be natural to secure some parts. had they done that, they would have avoided being caught in the ram apocalypse.

they didn't need to predict the ram price would skyrocket, they just had to do what a reasonable hardware manufacturer would naturally do.
