Oh, I have no doubt that you were taught that, and that the current curriculum still states all of that to be true. However getting all of your information from current curriculum is choosing to remain 10-20 years behind the current scientific research.
Basically 98% of all cholesterol in your system is made in the liver, only 2% of any blockage that is in the veins or arteries could possibly come from the amount of fat they eat, because that is all the effect dietary fat has on cholesterol. Consistently elevated insulin levels are responsible for most peoples high cholesterol. They have also found that the plaque build up is normally not the actual problem anyway. It is a factor, but the bigger factor has now been proven to be inflammation of the veins and arteries which cause the pathway for the blood to constrict. So you have high cholesterol which mostly comes from excess insulin in the system, and inflammation of the arterial pathways which again mostly comes from whole grains, and high FODMAP foods.
This is a topic that could go back and forth for days and days, and people probably feel passionately, and could get very upset. So I am just not going to go too heavily into defending the current science over what is now understood by most in the scientific community to be a misconception from the past. I don't mean that as an insult or anything, just current research has disproved the anti-fat fears of old. People who want the best treatment will go to places that are on the cutting edge of science. Not places that pretty much rely on just the current medical curriculum. They tend to go to hospitals known for being research heavy hospitals.
I think we can either agree to disagree here, or if you want to see the things I am referring to you can jump in on some of the medical research sites and check out the new information that you won't likely find in your curriculum. See if the current research sways your opinion any. It may or may not but in the end you will still know more than when you got started.
I was actually more or less completely agreeing with you. I was referring to some of the other people who responded like their personal style had been questioned when it was only being questioned for the OP. I honestly would have said that YOU are taking things out of context it I were directing it at you. I wasn't challenging your stance in any way shape or form. Most of what I said actually echoed your comments...
As to the question absolutely that workout can be done in 90 minutes. You have 22 sets in the upper, and 18 lower body sets. Doing that in 90 minutes is most definitely possible. Doing it at as high of an intensity level for your sets, not so much. However I know your training style and know that you are about resting a little to maximize intra-set recovery so you can push heavier and heavier weight which is awesome. Their are tons of factors. However reading the initial post in the thread it was obvious that this person did not have enough knowledge or experience to know how to go about making sure he actually gets good benefits out of it.
Oh I agree with most of this, the genetics I am referring to is to do with things like connective tissue issues or other reasons that a high volume of intense work can exacerbate. For example, I am genetically predisposed to degenerative arthritis. My soft tissue simply does not recover as well as yours. Some people have resilient connective tissue some less. This effects what I can recover from compared to you. My muscles recovering are never the problem, it is my connective tissue.
Genetics/biochemistry definitely has a hand in discipline, dedication, and or motivation levels. They are factors for certain. I have ADHD and I can assure you that it does effect my level of discipline and dedication. Can I improve it with practice or external motivation, absolutely but it is still harder for me practice discipline, or organization than someone who does not have ADHD. People are wired differently. For instance people who are slightly OCD tend to do extremely well in discipline. Are dogmatic about following it to the point missing a workout or a meal makes them physically uncomfortable. They will work out sick, unrested, or injured, just doing whatever it takes to do whatever the program calls for. Snags who is was held in very high regard around here openly admitted he was so dogmatic and disciplined because he was slightly OCD and not following what he had planned actually made him anxious and or agitated. So there is a spectrum there as well.
With my knowledge if I had the discipline to simply just act on it I would be far beyond where I am now. I can muster it for periods, and when I do so, what I can do with my body from my knowledge is pretty damn impressive. However I have a serious issue trying to maintain discipline levels for very long. Also not making excuses... I still hold myself responsible for my actions. That is also a part of why you will often see me trying to do something where there is external motivation with a price that adds pressure to help me with my discipline levels.
As far as being where you were before if you didn't train the way you do now? I don't think that is a legitimate assessment of the scenario. There is no doubt that the changes you made 5 years ago are completely responsible for your current state of badassery!!! However that doesn't really say anything about how less volume and proper nutrition might effect you now. It also is not the only way that you could have leaned out and improved your health. It just means that is the way that you did it. I am also not saying that the way you did it is not the absolutely best way for you, nor saying that it was. Honestly we can never know because it has already happened and there is no way to redo it with a different method to test against. Which was kind of the point I was trying to make.
DO I think you would benefit switching it up to a little less volume and heavier weight for a bit. Absolutely! Just like I would think that someone who had been following Dog Crapp for years would benefit from going with a higher volume type of workout for a while. Simply a new stimulus for the body to adapt to.
In the end though, it comes down to results and enjoying yourself in the gym. Most of us are not trying to achieve perfection, just improvement, and enjoying a workout program goes a long way as far as helping with discipline and dedication to it. So do what you enjoy so long as it has value to you and your goals while still being able to recover is going to be more important than all the minutia we can spit all day. 
I would personally scratch the DB side bends and do side planks or pallof presses. Your obliques are there for rotation and anti-rotation, not crunching. Also just from looking at your foot list it appears to be pretty low on protein.
