I think the topic was moved several times on the main boards and niner just stopped posting. In a general sense, I'm not sure how much better any diet is when building muscle. Strength and muscle growth are different. So, I wonder between keto, LCD, or a balance of MACROS if the protein is being hit with a minimum how much difference there is with anaerobic work? I can't imagine there is much other then adherence and preference. Some competitors will use LCD to cycle in and out of a different diet. I think part of the rationale has to with how or when they get their intake and how bored they may become just eating.

From what I've read of what the old school natty bodybuilders have done, there isn't really much difference when it comes to lean tissue, as long as you get enough protein and enough calories overall. They generally manipulate their carbs for purposes of fat loss or general weight gain.

Agreed. Today's term 'gear' or in my old head 'roids' is something else entirely. More then one talented local athlete has wrecked their lives, scholarships, using steroids with other recreational drugs. In terms of macro content and even ketone level I think the vast majority of people are closer to each other then they realize.
