Yes but… not all “greenhouse gas emissions” are the same. Emissions from cattle get recycled through natural processes, which is not the same as fossil carbon that hasn’t been part of the ecosystem for billions of years. I’m way more worried about fossil carbon.

What do you mean? CO2 emissions from each are molecularly identical. both go into the air and recycled/reabsorbed through the exact same processes. The difference is the source of the carbon, not the recycling.
Furthermore, about half of the GHG from animals like cows is methane, with is not part of the standard carbon cycle.
That makes a certain amount of sense, even if humans weren't keeping tens of millions of grazers as livestock, the plants they're eating would to some extent still exist, fix carbon, die, and release it. I think the main problem is animal methane emissions[1], which cause more damage than just C02[1]
