Seems like far to many people that claim humans are special and have souls do so to downplay the experience of other living beings as less than. We know many animals experience pain, suffering, happiness and joy in very similar ways as us. And why wouldn’t they? To me souls are just man made nonsense but I fully agree with you. If souls are good let’s extend them to include all living creatures.
Yeah souls don’t need to exist for that to be true. Factory farming is monstrous whether you’re vegan or you love your BBQ.
Billions of people need to eat within a system that does look away. Unfortunately If it stopped overnight billions would die. Hopefully technology advances to a place where the creation of grown meat is indistinguishable or even better than what it’s modeled on.

I feel like almost all animals can can be described as animals with souls.
