> Long-term I believe humanity should phase out killing animals anyway (via either clean/lab-grown meat or future iterations of plant-based meat)

This inclusive of hunting and (recreational) fishing? If so how do we do animal population and habitat management?

I mean, in an ideal world no one would ever die or be unhappy, but I won't pretend to be an expert on all the legitimate reasons that we kill things.

I should have phrased that as phasing out specifically killing animals for food. I fish myself, and I'm not advocating for any kind of drastic short-term change; over the long term, it's conceivable to me that use cases like recreational fishing could be addressed with AI robot fish and/or highly immersive VR/AR.
