I know. I was an animal rights activist once (in a time where "vegan" was either an insult or noone knew what it even was). Based on way too much knowledge about what we do with other beings.

And i didn't say "it's ethical", but a local farm where the cows got names and live a great life (up until they stop doing so) surely beats industrialized farming ethically. I doubt you wanna argue there, except you only can live in a binary world (harm/don't harm) . But that would be impossible as a vegan. Unless you're one (i just assumed) because it's fashionable or trendy or just edgy.

Btw something being "humane" doesn't really mean anything ethical. Being sadistic shit-sticks who rape the whole planet raw until there's nothing left is actuallly very "humane". No other species is that horribly aweful.
