One data point does not a theory make. Genetics for sure improves the acid resistance of teeth but it is more of a “delaying damage” rather than actual imperviousness.

I said all of that to say there is a genetic factor to consider, and if you are having enamel issues because of sodas then you would have likely also had them because of tomatoes and other citrusy zesty and acidic foods.
You can't just blame the soda, although I will admit that I'm sure my teeth health would be better if I did not drink so much soda.

That’s a fucking shit load of calories and stuff that just isn’t good for you, just the fact that it’s acidic will lead to gastric issues in the long run.

I drink diet soda. That way I don't have to worry about the calories.
