Earlier you were saying how you didn't trust only observational studies and wanted to see people actually doing randomized trials. That was for a meta-analysis, but this neither a meta-analysis nor an RCT. It is a single purely observational study.
Further, looking at their 95% confidence interval graphs... you can see the many of trends could potentially be completely reversed and still within the 95% confidence interval. Their 95% confidence interval contain probable outcomes where 140mg/dL was the worst possible level as well
Further it also still finds increased risk for heart issues with higher LDL.

Here is the study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33293274/
A ldl of 140 mg/dL had a overall lower all cause mortality than those with a ldl of 100 or below. Doctors will prescribe a statin at 130.
Good look having a ldl of 140 on a vegan diet. It's not happening.
If you are going to ignore my scientific studies then there is no use continuing this conversation.
