Is it not common in most places to differentiate land animals (meat) from sea animals (fish)? I get your point that there’s no real distinction to make philosophically, but it’s customary and most people understand it?
No? The only times I’ve seen fish treated as somehow not meat is for religious reasons. Generally you’d categorize the meat by the type of animal, such as beef, pork, chicken/poultry, or the broad categories like fish or shellfish.
Maybe it just depends on if you live someplace that’s very religious or not?

I dunno, I just assumed that anything that bleeds when you kill it is meat.
A lot of people make the distinction that red meat, mammals, are more intelligent, more aware of pain, more develop neurologically, than fish
WTF I want to kill a crab for scientific purposes now
We bleed horseshoe crabs for the medicinal properties of their blood.
You do you, my friend. My family and I prefer to spend our free time reading a good book or baking cookies.
