Fair point. You seem to be opening up the way to show what’s possible to larger organisations.
Having said that, can’t you connect these two? Can’t you one one end take practical steps to showing that real legal progress is possible while at the other end show the big picture that you’re working towards and why?
Thinking big around a shared goal could the increase cohesion and ambition of the idealistic people you’re connected with and work with on each new project from now on (this reminds me of Elon Musk’s leadership approach, who unfortunately doesn’t seem to care much about animal issues).
It is probable that lofty philosophical visions motivate and inspire people, just as you indicate.
I suppose the reason we don’t always lead with that kind of messaging is that it can scare away opponents who aren’t ready to dare challenging the “meat” industry and worry about slippery slopes. Including lawmakers whose constituents include scores of entrepreneurs who sell animal bodies as food.

Your point is well taken. Indeed, the goal is a world where everyone’s interest is given the same weight as equivalent interests, regardless of species.
