Thank you for implying that I didn't know exactly what I was responding to, and that I didn't read it carefully. The grandparent to my comment mentioned the cattle-pet distinction. The parent comment took that as some kind of statement of how common each situation is. I replied in a similarly loosely-connected manner, trying to reinforce the grandparent comment's point.
I fully understand that "cattle-owners" are less common, and that that's part of what the parent comment was saying. Reread the comment that they replied to, and reinterpret my comment as a reiteration of the grandparent comment, phrased in a different way.
