I'm not sure your thought experiment is all that useful, because there are many people who feel that livestock are fundamentally different from their pets and your example is similar to "What if the wizard instead replaced every plant with a human? Is it unethical to eat plants then?"

True, but I rarely see people explicitly assert that. The more people have to explain an arbitrary distinction out loud, the less it makes sense in the culture.
