Heart disease progresses over decades and there's no solid evidence it can be reversed. You don't want to wait til you're 18 months out from a heart attack to do anything. I don't think this is good advice

Correct. The idea is commonly referred to as "LDL-C Burden"
We do see good evidence of soft-plaque regression with very low levels of LDL-C, generally in patients undergoing high dose statin therapy or combo therapy.
