It begs the question, why it is being done? If it's not as good or better in terms of nutrition. One can certainly go down a rabbit hole of trying to define what is good or better is. My guess is that in terms of nutrition it would be extremely hard to beat ( despite what vegans claim). Evolutionary reasons at play here.
