but it occupies liver with processing fructose which iirc is disruptive to ketone production and does maintain a level of blood sugar that prevents body from entering ketosis.

If you’re purposefully consuming normal levels of carbohydrates you’re not going to be in ketosis anyways. Unless you’re maintaining a ketogenic diet there’s no reason to worry about your glycosis/ketosis state after a meal. A teaspoon of honey isn’t going to ruin your body. Likewise, if you’re over indulging it doesn’t matter much if it’s “better” sugar or “worse” sugar. I’m willing to bet the poster isn’t drinking a honey sweetened soda.
