Honeymoon would have gotten similar level acclaim to NFR! if it was released afterwards, or at a further point in Lana’s career. 
 
Lana’s recent work has been either some of her best, or some of her worst. (In my opinion, of course). I’ll never actually hate anything she puts out, but I definitely feel like the peaks of Chemtrails and peaks of Blue Banisters could have been combined into an even better album without the weaker tracks. I believe this has happened because she is so quickly coming up with ideas and concepts for her albums in the last few years, that she doesn’t properly sift through the tracks and leave certain ones out, and create an album of perfection like she did when she released every 2 years. Not to say that Chemtrails and Blue Banisters aren’t perfect or good, but in my opinion they’re not on the same level as previous records and the short period of time between them and NFR! is clear in their execution.  
 
For example, in my opinion White Dress, Not All Who Wander Are Lost, Yosemite, Dance Till We Die, Black Bathing Suit, If You Lie Down With Me, Dealer, Thunder, Nectar Of The Gods, Living Legend, Cherry Blossom and Sweet Carolina are some of the best songs she’s released in her career. However, most of these are old songs that she’s left unchanged. And in my opinion, Text Book, Arcadia, Beautiful, Violets For Roses, Let Me Love You Like A Woman and Breaking Up Slowly while mostly good - are some of the most boring and uninteresting songs she’s released in her career. They’re good, not bad, but compared to her discography, they’re not interesting. I hope for the next album, she either does a full 180 in sound and goes in a new direction, or takes a break (not long, just a year or two) to refine and polish the album

God Knows I Tried is one of her best songs of all time, and is perhaps even in the top 3 best tracks on Honeymoon (which is difficult to rank already)

I think it's always been meant to be like an anthology of her work so far, and what her career could've gone to, but it's just the strangest most ironic thing that this album was for the fans and it kinda imploded in regards to the majority of her more serious fanbase. always loved this record because for me, it was meant to be more fun, so glad that others are kinda seeing it's value easier now. 

im so touched  i didn't even know anyone knew i existed on this forum bc i've been so quiet this year!!
 

not to be dramatic but Dayglo Reflection is one of the greatest songs in the universe and this performance of it gives me chills every time:
