Carbs are not an essential nutrient, while fats, are. To be, that adds nuance right off the top. In my own body, cream cheese has a wildly different effect than soy oil. While, regardless of the food carrying the carbs, carbs all breaks down to sugar.
Excess simplification, often urged by a publisher, is part of that when it comes to books, too. The new, multi-factorial, view is the right one.
Now, thanks to science, there's good and bad macros! That's a big deal, too. I'm wrathful where their fake fat gets filed under "fat" and the whacky plant proteins are counted the same as actual meat.
Though if we have to simplify it, "energy toxicity" is a great shortcut, yes.
