The only difference I can see is that several of the fics I've read of that nature were written in season 1 or 2, when Zuko was still the enemy.
Yeah, that I totally get. Even after Zuko theoretically turns good, Sokka's loyalty is with his sister. But a fic that set post-series (of which there have been a fair few lately), means that Sokka would have to lie to his friend, rather than an uneasy ally and he wouldn't be able to ignore that.
