i see now, i think the difference here is you are talking general terms, as you mention, getting a "fairly decent idea" of what's what. that's not really the cals in = cals out paradigm, which means counting cals and counting cals is a nightmare that is next to impossible to sort out once serious cardio is introduced. hell, it's hard enough counting cals in by themselves.
and for many people, as i am sure you know, 100 cals can make a difference. worse, 100 cals of fruit v. 100 cals of gravy makes a huge difference for some people, like me. does 100 cals matter if you have 40% bf, no, but as that % drops, it matters more and more, that's my experience and those i exercise with as well.
