How much value would this conversion have relative to vegetarianism?
For example, I recently changed to only buying grass-fed beef (in part for health/taste reasons); how much humane value would you think that has relative to replacing my beef with whatever else?
What about replacing eggs with cage free or free range eggs versus a vegan replacement?
The value seems obviously positive, but it’s going to be very unclear as to what the exact value is. On a pure suffering per kg of meat basis, whatever you’re doing with chicken welfare is going to dominate. I expect cage free / free range to be moderately better than still eating regular eggs, but not eating eggs to be perhaps like 3x better, relatively.
