The OP's claim is that soil depletion is "the real reason", not "a reason".
I find your comment a difference without distinction. One does not address a problem with a monovariant. If we wish food to return to previous levels of nutrition, we address all of the reasons. If you are going to debunk, you debunk - not declare soil depletion as irrelevant. Now the next question becomes, will vegetables return to previous levels if we only return CO2 levels to 1750 ( the beginning of industrial era radiative forcing via increased CO2 in the atmosphere?
If you were to make a presentation on decreased levels of nutrients in food crops, and only use CO2 levels, there's your monovariant, and you will be taken to task for it. Don't like it? Use thoughts and prayers.
