BioLayne has a great take on it on his Instagram account.
Yes, the vegan group had better results. They also consumed more fiber, less saturated fat, and on average 200 less calories than the other group. Those facts more than account for the positive changes in their biomarkers.
Is it possible that going vegan makes it easier to accomplish those goals? Maybe. I personally don't think so. But for some people, it might.
Still, with good dietary choices, meat eaters can have just as much of a healthy profile as vegans.
What I did not hear BioLayne discuss:
Does the documentary also account for the fact that veganism literally cannot provide all of the nutrients humans require without supplementation? And does it account for the fact that most people cannot afford nor have the accountability or education level to understand how to supplement their vegan diet with all of the nutrients they need?
