From the outside it seems to fit well with religious laws that intend to reduce the suffering of the animal being slaughtered. If there is no animal that needs to suffer at all in the slaughter it seems like a win if it can be understood but the believers.

I have several family members that will refuse to eat anything that they know has garlic in it. Those were never the most adventurous people though.

To your point, If I really can’t afford a game I’ll pirate it and when I can get those games for $5 - 10 I’ll pick them up on steam or gog for as much convenience as anything. I’m not trying to get a free ride but my appetite for more art is greater than I could possibly afford.
