Oh certainly, as individual supplements. Antioxidants in particular have been shown to be useless as supplements. The question of whole foods is less easy to answer, however

An example might be that there is no consistent evidence that protein supplementation is effective for most things, but that doesn't mean that steak is a waste of time

True. I'd definitely agree that most supplements are a waste of time. My original point, that RCTs by design mostly can't assess ACM/MACE is also worth remembering
