In the Bees Hate You path, you can't use items with 'b' in the name. KoLmafia handles most of this well. For example, if you just try to use a January's Garbage Tote, it'll tell you "(usable quantity of January's Garbage Tote is limited to 0 by bees)". The issue is that the maximizer will still recommend items that can only be acquired by using the Tote. For example, maximizing for meat might list "fold & equip hat wad of used tape" as one of the recommendations in the GUI, and calling "maximize meat" in the gCLI will result in:
You are too scared of Bs.
