- diet is the first and foremost priority. Perhaps 95% of the results stem from good eating habits. Exercise is a good keystone habit that will influence dietary choices but it should not be favoured in comparison to diet.

Diet is important, yes, but exercise should not be taken out of the equation unless you want slow progress. In fact, a reason many people don't lose weight who want to is because their exercise habits don't influence their dietary plans, and they get discouraged or don't see results quick enough to continue the process.
I say exercise and diet goes hand-in-hand.
Added: if you want to make healthier decisions, why not go all out and do both? There's no reason not to other than excuses.
"No time" also isn't an excuse.
For example, I work from 8am-11am. Have class from 11am-1:30pm. Have work from 2-5. Have class from 5:30-8:10. Do homework between 8:30 and bed time at 10.
The only time I have time to exercise is in the morning, so I made it a habit to get up at 5am and exercise until 7:30 (that includes getting ready for my day and showering).
It's not hard to be fit, you just have to make logical decisions and actions.
