Umm.. there's no faux confusion here. I have encountered many fakers. I don't make it my duty to figure out which ones are and which ones aren't though. If someone asks me if there are gluten free options at my party I don't ask them if they are Celiac or not. I point them in the direction of any things I know are, or say "no, sorry" and maybe offer up some options for getting said items.
I don't see why you need to make it your business whether it's a legit condition or their choice, or why you care. Like I said, I've never had anyone get upset about it if I don't have anything for them. I guess you've had different experiences in the regard. But if you automatically snap to the assumption that they're faking it, or get belligerent about it before knowing what their status is, it's not a surprise that people will get defensive, choice or otherwise.
Any confusion for me is the existence of these people who get all upset when you don't have options. Never encountered that person and, as said, I have had gatherings with people that check off all these boxes.
