Agreed! Do you have an idea about the economic cost of factory-farming as a fraction of gross world product? The EAT-Lancet diet has 12.2 % (= (153 + 30 + 62 + 19 + 40)/2500; see Table 1) of calories coming from animals, and, according to the results of 3 approaches, would decrease adult deaths by 21.7 % (= (0.19 + 0.224 + 0.236)/3; see Table 2). If this is so, even if “hindering structural transformation” is very far down the list of bad things about animal agriculture, it could still be up the list of good things to boost economic growth?
I think those things are good, but “hindering structural transformation” is very far down the list of bad things about animal agriculture.

I doubt it would be, for suspicious convergence reasons, but I’m not informed enough to know.
