    It really depends on the type of “vegan”. Some people are in it for the dietary benefits and others are in it for the animal welfare. Dietary is actually “plant based” but most people just say vegan, even it it doesn’t quite fit.

      The ones in it for climate/dietary benefits are plant-based, not vegan, as they wouldn’t have an issue with e.g. leather (at least the dietary ones)

        True but when you go to a restaurant or store it is easier to just say vegan. No need to confuse people.
