Luke, I was thinking more or less the same thing. I have read a number of stories from people who lost weight on low fat/high carb plans only to develop diabetes and/or heart disease as a result of the high refined carb intakes many of those plans encourage.
Many plans can accomplish the goal of weight loss, but once you get to your goal weight, it's not about weight loss any longer, but about being as healthy as you can be and lowering your risk for diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. On those counts, I personally think that low carbing wins hands-down.
