Are the USDA recommended intakes ideal? If not, what do you would change?

I feel like the recommendations are not what is ideal but what is good and at the same time atainable in modern world by an average person. What would be the ideal intake of stuff like calcium, vitamin d, magnesium, vitamin k, protein etc.

i think the ratios of minerals and prob other stuff too matters a lot which the usda doesn’t really account for

these health organizations are all in some shape or form funded by lobbyists who have convinced normies that red meat is terrible while ultra processed seed oil filled plant garbage and processed pesticide filled grains are "heart healthy", don't pay attention to what they recommend beyond the basic common sense stuff

remember these same people were trying to convince us that smoking is good for you, that trans fats are healthy, that saturated fat is bad and sugar is good for you, the same will probably happen in 10 years time when they admit that seed oils are killing everyone
