The primary reason CICO doesn’t work for people is they are underestimating what goes in and overestimating what goes out.

I think that’s plausible, though I don’t know if it has been studied. It also coexists with the idea that what an individual actually digests can differ a lot from what is listed as a calorie count for a given food.
