Unfortunately someone with advanced dementia does not know if she has eaten or not. Most of the time there will be no eating, unless someone else puts food in your mouth.
I'm sorry for your first-hand experience, but I also need to remind you that 1 first-hand experience does not translate well to the overall population of people experiencing dementia.

That wasn't the case with my father, who had a pretty good appetite up until his last few weeks.

That’s literally what it says in the story though. That it would only happen if the person won’t eat by themselves.
You ever hung out with someone in deep dementia ?
But seriously, how do you know that?
