My take is that you are not engaging in a serious debate. Competing with “pests” for crop yield is not anywhere on the same level as cultivating an industry with systemic animal abuse.

I'm saying that there are different places that people draw the line on the amount of cruelty and suffering they will allow in order to live their lives. I could also point out the conditions of the people who assemble the devices that were using to have this debate, or the habitats destroyed in the mining of the material required. It's impossible to live in a way where you avoid inflicting some sort of suffering on others and it's all about where you personally find a balance between convinience for you and suffering for others.
