Once you figure out that LowCarbHighFat makes sense, you can learn n figure out what's good n what's not.
Clearly, Saturated fats n MonoUnsaturated r good while PolyUnsaturated are bad. So Avacado is good and so is Bacon and Butter . But Vegetable oils are bad.
Secondly, there is a lot of research which points that Cholestoral specifically LDL is not bad as long as TG is low and HDL is high which can be done by cutting carbs and increasing saturated fats.
My dad had extremely low LDL and high TG/low HDL and had a heart attack.
Conventional wisdom on fats is wrong. At least do some research, see both sides of the story, and decide what makes sense.

With keto or other high fat diets, compared to general healthy eating, the problem is with some interpretations. Like were any fat is ok, as it still allows you lose weight and people fry everything in butter, eat bacon as a regular snack etc. Might lose you weight but not necessarily so good for cholesterol and heart.
The same issue with low or no carb diets where people consider all carbs bad instead of sugars only.
True, there is a difference between healthy and unhealthy fats (avocado vs. bacon grease).
