Because it’s a relatively new competitor on the market that doesn’t have the same agricultural base as dairy products which warrants subsidies aimed at keeping farmers from losing their shirts during lean seasons?
No but that not the same isn’t an uncanny valley kinda not the same. It’s still a milk product because it’s meant to be able to be used the same way, but it’s still its own thing.

I agree with cutting off subsidies, but for people calling stopping production, it clearly just doesn’t taste the same.

Yeah, just for me I like the taste of normal milk, and haven’t really found milk substitutes that I like the taste of.
Those people prioritize reducing the suffering the dairy industry causes over that taste people like.
We could always, ya know, stop exploiting and slaughtering animals?
Why?
Do you really need an explanation of why it’s good and moral to reduce suffering of sentient animals?
Gophers are also sentient, doesnt stop me from gassing the bastards.
Yes, more specifically where you would think it starts? What level of complexity of brain?
I do. it’s nonobvious. in fact, I’d say most ethical systems dont consider it at all.
