Brother even if you get meat for free the remaining food you buy would still be 30% cheaper if it was vegan according to the study so idk why you think you can just completely disregard that.

they are not considering cases where you get free products from animal agriculture

Yes and they also did not consider getting free products from regular agriculture. So let’s say it balances out?

“Vegan diets were the most affordable and reduced food costs by up to one third.” - University of Oxford

You’re arguing to exclude animal agriculture from laws banning animal abuse which makes it seem like you consume their products which means you pay for them to abuse animals.

I’m trying to understand your reasoning for this. There is billions of animals tortured to death in slaughter houses but you want to change the laws for these few monkeys why?

Because if you believe that every saved animal is worth fighting for then why are you not living in line with those morals when it comes to your food choices?

A vegan diet is up to 30% cheaper today. No need to wait for some hypothetical new alternative to meat. There is already vegan meats. You can always swap to a different alternative whenever it comes out if you want.

It makes no difference to the victim for what purpose you torture and kill them

Animal agriculture is for entertainment of the taste buds, not a necessity. So your denominator would not exclude animal agriculture.

Okay so now instead of threatening to harm humans they are actually killing animals

The laws are like this because animal agriculture is also a literal baby crushing machine so harsher laws would basically make animal agriculture impossible.
