Does anyone actually think that the optimal amount of calories is zero and the optimal amount of nutrients is infinity?
It’s common for people to think that they (or others) should consume less calories and more nutrients. They generally stop thinking before the question of “how much more or less?” comes up.

And sometimes they are right.

True that, but that doesn’t seem to be specific to nutrition.
(That said, I am peeved by advice that assumes which way the listener is doing wrong, e.g. “watch less TV and read more books” rather than “don’t watch too much TV and read enough books”.)
