This is probably a bad idea, but I’ll give it a whirl.

        Health benefits may exist for veganism, but they are not the main argument for veganism. Veganism would still exist if there were (solvable/manageable) health drawbacks.

        Veganism is more a philosophy, less a diet.

          Veganism is the liberation of the animals. I would argue that the philosophy is what makes you healthier in the mind and the heart.

            There is no “bulletproofness” in assumptions. We don’t exactly know how our conscience affects our health and health is a weak argument for veganism, because individual health is disagreeable or subjective and in this case mostly just about human animals.
