Pray tell what "healthy relationship" we have with nature with the current status quo?

Using science and technology for good by reimagining the antiquated methods of creating stuff like milk, cheese, beef , honey, leather, etc is a good thing.

Replacing these "antiquated" methods with extensive supply chains (even more) dependent on non-renewable resource extraction doesn't seem like using technology "for good"

Supply chains and process can be streamlined. A herd of cows is a herd of cows.

A barrel of oil is a barrel of oil.

Right, because all of the plastics used in these labs are made from renewable sources?

Yes, it’s possible but you can’t say the same about live feed. Cows will be cows, pigs will be pigs.
