No I'm not. Go into AFib every few months for a couple of hours. Self convert.

The study you cite Malmo compares a form of HITT and a control group whose exercise habits (including whether they exercise at all) are completely unspecified even retrospectively.
The more recent study Kluchi actually compares HITT and moderate exercise for AF onset, albeit in a different type of cohort, and the results show the advantage of moderate exercise over HITT. This appears to be the only study of this type. There is actually a very detailed discussion of their results which is worth reading.
I wouldn't dismiss the guidelines of the Cleveland Clinic cardiologist. Along with extended fasting, hypothermia, restrictive diets, and mega-supplementation, there is no evidence-based study that shows the advantage of HITT over a moderate approach for AF, and may well incur some risk.

In a person who knows whether they are in afib, has no comorbidities and also knows that HIIT is not a trigger (as in many vagal afibbers), the outcome well may have been different.
I don't think a generic prescription is warranted. It should be based on an individual's circumstance. Nothing wrong with moderate exercise.
