No, my claim that vegetable are a good source of high quality protein in general - and not just soy - is taken straight from your paper. You are cherry-picking data and ignoring the most basic dietary advice to support your pro-beef argument at this point. Not only that, you are adding completely bogus claims such as to the amount of food required from sources you find inferior: A steak contains roughly 25 grams of protein per 100 gram. Boiled soy contains 17 grams of protein, while dry roasted soy contains 40 grams of protein per 100 gram - almost double that of beef. Someone weighing 80kg would need eat 240 grams of steak, 352 grams of boiled soy, or just 150 grams of dry roasted soy! Not only are the numbers similar, but they are beat by soy yet again.

And yet again, basic dietary advice is that you should eat varied. Suggesting that you should cover your entire nutritional requirements from a single source - steak, soy or anything else - or in a single serving is objectively bad advice.

As a proud carnivore who has difficulty finding comfort in vegetarian diets, I find this sort of backwards justification for our environmental load highly disappointing. Eating meat is one thing - as a steak lover, I would be a hypocrite to fault you for that - but trying to make it sound like a necessity or a sensible choice is just... Wrong.
