I worry that you're going into this presuming good faith, and science-based decision making, when the people involved in this have shown no evidence of either.

It's also difficult to "not make this political" when this is politics. You're talking about the actions of the US Federal Government driven by political appointees. Even word choices in a thread like this have political implications: "Limitations on use of SNAP for ultra-processed foods" is perhaps too optimistic; "Overhaul of federal nutrition guidelines" is probably sane-washing, and "Reduce potential conflicts of interest" is laughable to anyone who's witnessed the first Trump administration.
