User blog:Netherrakk/Adaptation of arguments against Shelly protection

If someone prevents you from mining shellies, you can use the following arguments to prove that you can mine shellies.

Shellies are intended to be mined Soybeen lets players mine Shellies. Shellies have no use other than being ridden by players, being "cute" (decorative), or being killed. However, being cute/ridden is stupid, because bantos are cute too and riding a banto is faster than riding a shelly. Bantos can also be killed for hide and meat, but unlike shellies, they can't drop rare ores such as emerald.

Shellies don't have feelings The shellies consist of Roblox parts and are scripted by Soybeen. Roblox parts don't have feelings, and the script made by Soybeen doesn't have any AI deep learning, so they can't even simulate human behavior.

Ants were allowed to take shellies Similarly to frogs in real life who eat shellies because you let wild creatures eat each other to survive, in Booga Booga, shellies are essential to ants. And obviously that's why they always take shellies to their ant mound.

Shellies have the "Slate" texture in Roblox Studio And most of the things with the "Slate" texture are meant to be mined.

The shelly protectors have no reason to forbid the killing of shellies Other than to satisfy their own feelings. Here are the arguments that they use:
 * Shellies have feelings: However, "emotions are created by our brain". In Roblox Studio, shellies don't even have a part or script named "brain". They don't have an actual brain either. Could non-neural feelings be possible? Maybe, but that's not proven, so it's only an assumption.
 * Shellies are cute: Being cute does not necessarily mean that people shouldn't kill it, and being cute is a subjective thing.
