They choose to focus exclusively on the colloquial use of "diet" to mean a set of eating rules designed to result in weight loss and ignore the broader use of it as "what a living being eats on a daily basis," like "A Barn Owl's diet consists exclusively of mice." So when you start applying fatlogic, diet = restriction, restriction = eating disorder, therefore any restrictions to your eating whatsoever mean you're on a diet and have an ED. Unless you're eating crap 24/7 you're part of the problem.

I eat crap 24/7, just not to the point of gaining weight. It's not that hard to only eat until you're full and then stop eating.

I agree with you - but we're dealing with people who don't eat until they're full, they eat until they're tired.
