I think the answer is pretty simple: we should eat varied and follow the seasons. That many get pretty sick by going into ketosis shows how unhealthy we are. A healthy human can switch between a diet with lots of carbohydrates and one with few without problems. I'd posit that more than 99% of humans cannot switch between fat burning and glucose burning without getting sick because of withdrawal symptoms.
