A lot of vegans already agree with these points, and some of the more hardcore ones don’t like vegans who are only vegan for health reasons calling themselves vegan.
I think there is some danger with making the label of ‘vegan’ too restrictive as it may reduce the number of people wanting to be ‘kinda vegan’. I don’t have figures on how likely this event is, but I’d rather encourage 5 people to be vegan half the time than 1 person to be vegan the whole time, and I think restricting the label too much makes the first less likely.
