Default Low calorie diets and vigorous lifting

Start rant
I've noticed something that I thought wouldn't happen around here because most folks here are smarter than the average dieter. While poking through the workout logs, I've noticed several people on low calorie diets (1100-1400 a day range) who are also doing some pretty intense workouts.

Given the amount of knowledge and info that's shared here, why are there still folks who think they don't need to eat an amount that's proportionate to their energy expenditure? Are any of these people (you know who you are) calculating your BMR and taking that into account? Am I missing something?

I'd never have one of my clients eating that little, especially considering the types of workouts I put them through.

End rant.
