Carbs: 4 calories per gram
Protein: 4 calories per gram

Lowering carbs and upping the fat doesn’t reduce the calories one is eating. Perhaps it results in less appetite, resulting in fewer calories. But that’s different than asserting that one eats fewer (not LESS! GRR!) calories because one no longer eats carbs.
Saturated fat is not harmful. Google.
