Yep, the fruit itself is the way to go. I drink maybe a couple glasses of fruit juice each year. But when fruit juice is up against diet Pepsi, there’s no way I’m taking the diet Pepsi!

I mostly agree with your point. Eating the whole fruit is much better than drinking it but in moderation I think juice is fine. I have thyroid problems and even if I’m riding 20 hours a week I could gain weight if I were to drink too many calories. The diet stuff worries me and I’d rather have a few extra calories.
