>your comment makes it sound like sugar is a requirement

Sugars plural yes

Hypoglycemia

There is no biological requirement for dietary carbohydrates.

the liver makes glucose (called gluconeogenesis), this happens regardless of diet

Damn I looked it up and it's true, the WHO has no recommendation for a minimum amount of carbs nor sugar
