I agree with your arguments. We're on the same side of all of this.

I disagree on having to remove one if both are bad. It would be like the trolley problem. 10 people suffer repeatedly indefinitely vs infinitely many suffering eventually. Moving all use to sugar cane will be worse for the environment than spreading some honey and some sugar cane. See my previous monocultulturalism point.

Personally I think honey vs sugar cane is equal, so for me the choice is bad either way. I don't know which is worse, I try to use less, but what I use I feel is ambivalent, so I use both.
