I can’t figure out why eggs are so essential, but I’m probably biased as a vegan. I just don’t recall buying tons of eggs all the time (or at all).
Tofu scramble is dead easy to make and the non-vegan people in my life are so shocked it’s not real eggs.
In my mind animals product are always going to increase in cost as large-scale animal agriculture becomes less and less sustainable. We can artificially lower costs by subsidizing, but that too isn’t sustainable.
I tried a vegan "egg" last week, it was OK I guess but more expensive. If the economics work out like you say, then eventually those will get better, and cheaper, and then become the new "egg" used in the consumer price index.
