It’s amazing how unfamiliar you seem to be with this board while still falling into the exact stereotype you’re saying doesn’t exist and virtually parroting the caricature given in the post directly above. I am curious: how much time did you spend scrolling through google images looking for an image of the coarsest ground beef patties you could find?

Despite having “steak” in the name, steak tartare is not in fact the same thing as filet mignon. They may be made from the same cut, but the dishes are wildly distinct. You might as well argue that every item at Taco Bell is the same because, “it’s all just the same few ingredients arranged in different ways”, so you might as well just order 5 baggies of cinnamon twists and call it a night. I’d probably have some pent-up rage I didn’t fully understand if that’s the way I lived my life too.

You do you, anon. I just find grey beef that wasn't smoked, braised, or stewed to be kind of disgusting.

If you actually went outside you’d know that medium-rare is the most popular burger temp ordered at most restaurants, and 3 out of 8 taps at your local bar are IPAs because people actually like IPAs. Yes, I know that’s impossible for you to believe, and right now you’re probably picturing those “people” as a bunch of 20 somethings with big beards and flannel shirts, but in reality they’re literal 70 year old boomers and soccer moms and pretty much just a swath of the general population.

We started selling "Beyond Burgers" where I work, and I literally put on a glove and double mask whenever I drop one on the grill, because they smell vile. I keep telling myself I'll try one, but it just seems like a waste of a night (they smell like wet cat food). I just went with a variation on my usual tonight, but will make a thread when I actually try this faux crap. We got a new cook last week and he asked me how to know when a Beyond Burger is properly cooked, and I literally said, "I have no fucking idea, but everyone who's ordered on has said that it was the best one they've had, as every other place overcooks them, so just pretend like it's a normal burger and cook it medium rare".

I go through ~3 handles a week; I know what I'm doing.

Apparently you've never been to Jack in the Box.
