The distinction is key. Honeybees are one of the biggest reason other Bees and native pollinators are going extinct. Honey bees are voracious foragers and will out compete almost all other pollinators.
There are anti honey bee non profits with missions between eradicating honey bee nests they find to just relocating them to places where they can be used for monocrops.
If the extreme native pollinator crowd got their way we would all be fucked as honey bees currently account for 75% of ag pollination, with the remainder mostly being self pollinated plants.
But the other bees and pollinators are. And thats scary.
