This a good example of hijacked science.
The facts - people with high blood pressure benefit from reductions in salt intake. If you don't have HBP, there's no evidence to show a BP benefit from reduced salt intake nor an increase in BP from eating too much salt.
These public health models are nice, but they can only make sense as a basis for experimentation. To actually use them as a basis to restrict consumer choices or industry offerings would be madness. Of course, that would not stop the 'true believers' from taking that course ...
