All I am saying is that one has to make an arbitrary care/don’t care boundary somewhere. and “human/non-human” is a rather common and easily determined Schelling point in most cases. It fails in some, like the intelligent pig example from the OP, but then every boundary fails on some example.

Where does sentience fail as a boundary?
if sentience isn’t a boolean condition.
