The supermajority of self described vegans are ethical vegans. Ethical veganism is not a diet.
For example, animal products you find in a trash can are ethically vegan because consuming them does not contribute to, or create economic demand for animal abuse. First-hand leather products (which you do not eat) are absolutely not ethically vegan.
A lot of people are vegan or vegetarian for the same reason. Plenty of groups within the movement have theory and a party line
I’m not saying they’re different reasons I’m saying they’re not the same as one online forums singular enforced reason.
A party line… for a diet?

Yeah I agree with your examples :)
