I think you'll find scientific consensus isn't on your side here. The American Heart Association certainly doesn't agree with your assessment

The American Heart Association has a huge investment in a narrative they've been pushing for 40 years.

  • Randomized controlled trials show LDL consistently drops with lower saturated fat intake, and randomized controlled trials show LDL strongly correlated with coronary risk. It’s one of the best-established causal relationships in nutrition science.

    The American Heart Association’s narrative is based in observed clinical relationship between saturated fat intake, LDL, and coronary events.
