The protein you get from meat is a different collection of amino acids than the protein you can get from plants or soy.

True, but you can combine plants to get the same collection (e.g: beans with bread).

Also, the overwhelming majority of amino acids is not important. For nutrition only the 7 essential amino acids matter (the ones not made by our metabolism).
