But satiety is very complex, and it’s possible that sweetener replacements make people hungrier in the long run, leading to weight gain.

IIRC that was a popular opinion about artificial sweeteners for a while because pigs are raised on food with sweeteners, to make them eat more. That doesn’t mean sweeteners make you hungrier though, just that pigs like to eat sweet things so they eat more of it.
