My point is more that cows are great at taking inedible grasses and turning them into protein. Growing a rich protein and then feeding it to a cow to make slightly different tasting protein is dumb.

Impossible to scale however. Not sure how it is in other EU nations, but Germany in particular loves to put animals as closely together as they can get away with, which is basically in enclosures in which the animals can't move whatsoever.
It's especially egregious because these factories get subventions by animal, so everyone is paying to create these factories from hell - including people that don't eat meat for moral reasons. And no political party sees any issues with that.
Soy protein for example is particularly low in Methionine and Cystine. If your goal is to get enough of those, you might have to eat three times as much soy as for example egg whites (by weight). But similarly soy protein has more Tryptophan than beef. "Completeness" is a binary that is not quite sufficient to describe protein quality.
There is a reason whey and egg proteins are more popular among strength athletes for example, as they are richer in leucine, which seems to be the limiting amino acid in muscle building.
I still think we should eat way less meat and soy is a very high quality substitute for it.
