And then years from now when this all comes to a head, they’re gonna hire some poor schmucks to fix that crappy code

Not the person you’re responding to, but I think that the argument “we shouldn’t do X because no other animals do it” is a bad argument in general and overall weakens your position. Because there are plenty of things that humans do that animals don’t do that are good (like developing and applying vaccines for example).

There are plenty of other valid and good reasons to promote dairy alternatives (such as health or environmental reasons).

This describes my pea brain to the letter.

Like once I figure out how to do a thing, I no longer have anything interest in doing the thing.
