If you are sticking to the argument so cleanly, then perhaps you can stick to my answer, which is at the beginning and not the end of the response you are speaking of.

As I predicted, the purpose of this post was vegan debate, and my answer has been completely ignored.

Fungi aren't animals. Vegans don't eat animal products. Your answer was ignored because it is not relevant.

If there's a diet you'd like to discuss that involves not eating fungi then go ahead and make a post for it.

My answer wasn't irrelevant. Go back and re-read it.

It is clear the question asked is a ruse to goad people into a vegan debate.

If you take OP as being 2 questions, then the first answer is at the beginning, and the answer to the goading question of food scarcity is the end.

But the answer is clearly not what OP was after. Only vegan preaching was intended.
