YES. This is BS.

Sugar is a chemical class of compounds. The body will use different means to metabolize sugars based on which sugar it encounters. There are even a few sugars that your body can’t metabolize at all. Wood, i.e., cellulose, is an example; you can’t digest wood; you don’t have the enzymes or gut bacteria to process cellulose. I don’t know how agavins are constructed, but they might not even be sweet.
