    Two things I can think of: first, that the harvesting process will unavoidably involve killing a lot of lac bugs, even if they’re filtered out later, and secondly, that some vegans include insect-produced substances (notably honey) in the things they avoid.

      Such weird reasoning to me, given it’s impossible to produce/harvest vegetables without killing bugs.
