Do you mean that the protein content of the mackerels could explain the
difference between cases 1 and 2?
Other factors could be:
 *there was more fat in the 2 mackerels than in the avocado
 *the avocado, besides fat, contains some carbohydrates

I am unable to digest correctly honey after protein, but I have never tried in
the reverse order. In any case, our body produces enzymes to digest protein, and
enzymes to digest sugars, so even a miscombination is at least partially
digested.

There are no "rules" of food combination valid for everybody. I often mix 2
different proteins at the same meal without apparent problems.
