Cars are also not safe, especially at 200+ km/h but somehow it’s OK to drive them this fast in Germany.

Edit: What I want to say is that there is no absolute safety.

(Established) scientists have a long history of ignoring new theories not science itself. But that’s because at the end of the day scientists are still human.

Science is not great at working on a very short time scales. But give it enough time so more evidence is gathered and possibly some stubborn influential people (that can’t accept a new theory) die and generally we get closer and closer to truth.

It all depends on what is actually trying to be communicated. With your definition most meals would be plant based so why even bother to say it. With definition where plant based means no animal products it communicates that it is fine for vegans and it’s likely less offensive for people allergic to word “vegan”.

Language is interesting in this way. Same words in different contexts mean different things.

“Based on true events” = “Contains traces of what actually happened”

“Plant based” = “Does not contain animal products but can contain mushrooms even though they are not plants”

Homo sapiens also doesn’t originate from Europe.

How far back does it count? Humans originate from Africa so everything we do can be seen as Africans doing things with stuff from all over the planet. Or perhaps even that is not far enough. What’s the origin of the first mammal… The only contestant is change and life is good at mixing things up.
