The quality of that research is garbage. Epidemiological studies with questionaires, comparing people who eat processed junk with those who eat processed junk with fiber (where it does have the benefit of blocking the absorbtion of the junk).
The only interventional study so far proved the opposite - zero fiber = zero constipation. Further there are many people who hadn't eaten fiber for years with no problems, so at least it's not universally required.
Here's a great talk that goes more in depth and isn't even that long:

I don't care that some people want to destroy their gut with fiber but claiming it's required or even healthy is just wrong given the data we have.
