I would have thought it equally obvious that I was disagreeing with your opinion
I also disagree that it is 'better' in any possible sense. Human life and animal life is not equivalent, either legally or morally. The treatment of profoundly sick or untreatable animals is a function of that lesser status.
The treatment of animal life is appropriate to their moral and legal status, as is the treatment of human life in our current system.
