Doing the right thing for the wrong reason still results in the right thing being done. So ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Sure, I'm all for this. Less body parts being sold is always a good move. I just think we need to keep in check why corporations SOMETIMES act ethically.
In this case it's obviously cheaper, also organic materials are probably harder to source and manufacture consistently
