If graphene is cheap by either source, there's a net benefit regardless. When tech adds flexibility, we converge on more efficient uses overall because we don't have to push them through a bottleneck. And graphene manufacturing is believed to reduce our footprint in other areas by being "stronger and lighter" per unit: less used, less transported, less wasted. And if waste food becomes a major resource, that acts as a direct encouragement to subsidize food overproduction, which is not really a bad thing(nobody wants their nation to starve in a bad season).
