You might be reading more into that than the researchers intended. This is the closest they came to a recommendation:
" Our findings provide additional evidence that prostate cancer survivors should follow the nutrition guidelines limiting red and processed meat consumption to improve overall survival. Additional research on the relationship of specific meat types and mortality is needed. "

Yes, that ubiquitous boilerplate advice that we all know so well by now eschewing red meat, processed meat, etc.
I remember years ago reading a study that in the south of France most fats were derived from poultry fat - either in the form of congealed fat (jewish shmaltz) or an oil, melted and used for cooking. Interestingly, it was NOT olive oil.
The lifespans in this area commonly exceeded 100 years….
So now what do we do with these two pieces of information? Do we say “Eat chicken fat - live to a hundred!”? Unfortunately that’s what most would say, knowing absolutely nothing about other lifestyle practices (smoking, alcohol, exercise, genetics, etc.).
We like our boilerplate and our slogans….just makes life easier, I guess…
