It's basically impossible to post anything of this sort on HN without being downvoted to oblivion.

The skeptical, critical thinking skills of the audience here don't come close to matching the general technical ability.

Supply chains don't completely rewrite themselves overnight. Shutting down meat distribution doesn't help people eat. For the time frame of '2020', the meat industry is essential.

The supply chain goes like this... plants -> animal -> human consumption. Yes you can rewrite overnight to plants -> humans.

But on this topic I'm better off talking to the wall of bricks next to me than the HN audience

> Yes you can rewrite overnight

We have shortages in supermarkets and food rotting on farms at the same time. Rewriting a supply chain is hard, and your amazing line-drawing skills aren't going to fix that overnight.

And you didn't even address how much of that plant matter doesn't meet human quality standards. Even more to significantly rework.
