For many diabetics who also suffer Celiac disease, NUTS are just about 100% of their starch intake.

If you reduce demand for nuts, their availability declines and you unnecessarily put the lives of hundreds of thousands of such people at risk.

This sounds pretty farfetched to me - possibly My nephew supposedly has "Celiac disease" and a bunch of other things wrong with him too and he eats rice, beans etc. Possibly starving because of lack of nuts vs death in a couple of minutes due to anaphalactic shock seem like no contest, besides they can always eat nuts at home.
