It would be more convincing but it would not be more meaningful. If you only ate potatoes and you got enough calories, you would be getting enough protein. The whole idea of a “protein source” being a nutritionally significant concept is bogus. If anything, you want to moderate your protein.
I don’t know, it seems sort of arbitrary comparing a high protein source with an all rounder, and the water requirements for producing lentils (whilst substantially higher than potatoes) is still significantly lower than for beef. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some taters and lentils.
As for proteins nutritional significance, wouldn’t depend on your lifestyle and dietary requirements?
Wouldn’t it have been better to compare the water consumption of farming beef with annother protein source like beans, lentils etc?
