So eat meat or eat beans. Where do maggots enter the picture.

Can anyone provide a coherent explanation for why we shouldn't just skip the inefficient step where we convert plant protein to animal protein and just eat a bowl of black beans instead of a maggot concoction? Couldn't we just go for beans if we want supply chain efficiency or meat if we aren't optimizing for that?

Correct. This article is idiotic. They completely ignore lifetime consumption and only look at current consumption, forgetting that those stocks and other income generating assets are also X% more expensive.
