Protein/​dairy tradeoffs/​substitutions make more sense: honey/​syrup/​agave seem less necessary. For example, waffles, pancakes, french toast, etc still taste good without much of those, and honey/​syrup/​agave all seem too sugary to be healthy. Since they seem less necessary, your reasoning makes more sense to me as a case against honey alternatives rather than a case for honey
