But MIPS isn't about impact absorption, it's about stopping a roll happening on the skull that leads to concussive damage to the brain.

MIPS is about allowing the helmet to roll independently of the skull to reduce that concussive effect.

You can get MIPS built in to the pads now, so it's less of an issue.

I suspect that the honeycomb will have a different compression pattern to EPS. Generally when tubular structures like that collapse, there is a certain amount of lateral movement anyway.
