Not sure whether 10g/11g per 280 calories are too much, but one search result is "The Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2020-2025 advise that all Americans 2 years and older limit added sugars in the diet to less than 10% of total calories. For a 2,000 calorie/day diet, that translates into 200 calories or 50 grams of sugar daily"
=> suggest <= 7g sugar per 280 calories

When people read the comment "too much sugar," they think there is literally sugar or corn syrup added to sweeten the flavor. It may not be deliberately misleading, but it is misleading. Honey is the second ingredient in this granola and that is where the "added sugar" is coming from on the nutrition label.
Finally - honey is processed by the body differently than sugar. I had to look it up as I didn't know the specific differences off the top of my head, but here you go:
Honey's advantages over sugar include a slightly lower glycemic index (i.e. it doesn't affect your blood-sugar levels as much)," Dr. Dixon says. "It also contains more vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, such as calcium, potassium, vitamin C, zinc, phenolic acids, and flavonoids."
