> one more data point showing that if one uses the global confirmation bias machines of search engines to look for a specific phrase, (such as 'no preference' + 'tree' + 'bee')

Honestly, that is an insult. Anyone who knows me knows I am very thorough when I investigate something. Further, my motto is absence of proof is never proof of absence. But the fact remains, the only work I have seen where they have addressed the question of honey bee preference for nesting sites all agrees on this point: they have no preference re: tree type. If anyone has anything to the contrary, they should post it.
