Sorry! I’ve edited my comment to make it clearer that I’m trying to say that suffering caused by eating meat is not the only factor you should weigh in estimating expected utility.
(For what it’s worth I do still think it’s likely that, taking these other benefits into account and assuming you think society is seriously undervaluing the moral worth of animals, veganism still doesn’t make sense as a matter of maximizing utility.)
