This makes sense honestly. I guess you would still run the risk of a non-vegan seeing you do these things and going “ha! hypocrite!” but I don’t know how real that risk is honestly.
Yeah, my friends who knew about the exceptions didn’t care at all. The only case where I think it would be a problem is hiding your exceptions from someone you’re trying to convert. If you don’t actually eat a fully vegan diet, convincing other people to do that based on your example is misleading. But that’s presumably a less common thing where explaining the details and why is worth it (and will likely help you convince people since it shows you’ve actually thought it through).
