People who undertake intermittent fasting are often adding other diets or changes to lifestyle. Thanks to the mentioned small sample size, the numbers could be attributed to a couple jackasses confusing red meat basted in lard with keto diet.

20 000 is not "small sample size"... that 20x more than needed to have reliable data

If you think that data reliability is more dependent on size and not data gathering methodology, then I see no point in arguing. Unless the underlying idea was to get headlines, it's a very poorly designed study.
