Not quite. It's that fat feeding does not increase the efficiency of fat 
burning . The right kind of exercise does that. One of the concerns I had 
with my "hypothesis" was the time it would take to "acclimatize" the horse to 
fat burning once fat loading was implemented. This paper says fat feeding 
does not have an acclimating effect--that you have to get that done in 
another way. So, the duration of fat loading doesn't have to stretch out to 6 
weeks or even to 3 months.
