This is pretty much the point I aim for whenever I talk about veganism. It is arbitrary, but strong proponents tend to frame it as an obvious moral truth. I’m with you: be aware of and grateful for everything that contributes to your life and livelihood.
My own brand of “harm reduction” means eschewing plastic whenever possible, this means leather and wool instead of polyester and vinyl (cotton and linen can’t do everything, and vegetable leather just isn’t durable)

That’s a brand of thought I could subscribe more to, thank you for sharing your perspective.
