As a type 1 I still need insulin even if I'm completely keto. It's not just carbs that affect blood glucose; as you pointed out, exercise and sleep can affect sugar among other things (stress, infections, meditation, using the toilet, drinking, various drugs...).
If my blood sugar goes up, to some degree, exercise and water can help - but they're not replacements for insulin. The suggestion that diabetics may not really need insulin is both ignorant and dangerous. You are not a doctor. People of hn, please go to your doctor for medical advice instead of hackernews comments.
