Read the original post. That's exactly what was said.

As would the TSA gate droids not attempting to be both MDs, dieticians, and security droids at the same time. For many of them that last part seems to be more than they can handle on it's own.

My mom eats what her dietician tells her to eat. With no exceptions - it's pretty explicit. You, nor any other TSADroid is a dietician, so telling her what is necessary is not only wrong but perhaps illegal and hopefully actionable.
