Arielle,
The major benefit to carnivore over low carb keto is the magic of Protein Leverage. As long as they don’t overdo fat, and get the nutrients that are abundant in protein foods, they should be successful.

Benefits of the Carnivore Diet
Carnivore has many benefits. For starters, it is almost inevitable that you will get adequate bioavailable protein on a carnivore diet (unless you’re explicitly targeting high fat).
Hitting your protein goal often means that you will also hit your targets for the ‘cluster’ of nutrients that tend to accompany high-protein foods. Increasing your intake of the amino acids and the nutrients that come with them will increase your satiety and allow you to eat less while still feeling full.
A carnivorous diet also excludes sugars, refined grains and industrial seed oils, which are the primary components of hyperpalatable ultra-processed food.
Compounds in plant foods often contribute to or spur many intolerances. So, if you are dealing with histamine intolerance or sensitivities to different foods, the carnivore diet is considered the ‘ultimate elimination diet’ because it removes all plant foods.

I’ve also read many more stories of NOT losing weight on carnivore, having digestive issues, bored with lack of variety, etc. As people can fail on most "every" diet, inc, LC and Keto. Did X Diet Fail You?

You can harness the weight loss power of Protein Leverage, while still eating a balanced diet including vegetables, fruit and dairy. The biggest lesson from upping my protein and tracking was realizing what is considered Protein on LC or Carnivore food lists is often more Fat, more Calories.
