At present, we know that individuals with impaired glucose control (e.g. insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, pre diabetes, etc.) seem to do better with respect to managing their blood sugar, lose more weight, and so on if they eat the majority of their Calories earlier in the day. Think of time restricted feeding where after a dinner in the early evening, people don’t eat anything else. We also know that a workout in the afternoon seems to render this all mostly moot, but there may be additive effects.
We also know that eating at similar times each day also helps with hunger ratings and various related hormones, such that changing the meal time itself can produce the effects seen in the paper you linked.
None of this really applies to shift workers whose circadian rhythm is shifted anyway, and not to individuals who do not have excess adiposity w/ impaired glucose control.
