I never seen sugar used as shorthand for fructose. It would mean majority of candies dont have sugar in them - they dont have simple fructos

And it is not used that way by people who push keto and low carbohydrates diets on HN.

And again, it renders fat vs sugar dichotomy meaningless.

I don't know what you mean by 'simple fructose'. You're the only one who has said that. Candy usually has high fructose corn syrup which is about 60% fructose and 40% sucrose.
