Mackerel aren't small and some of them are very high on the food chain in fact and thus accumulate a lot of mercury, it isn't something you want to eat regularly let alone use as a replacement for meat in general.

because cultivation of land animals is easier and more sustainable you nigger

There are plenty of societies that survived on seafood/fish meat but once they go inwards they revert to agriculture and pastoral farming, not because its particularly healthier (arguable its less healthier due due to processed food products) but because its easier.

The fucking vikings conquered europe on a diet of fish

>Farmed fish can be slightly higher in omega-3 fatty acids, presumably due to the farms' fortified feed.
That's really odd. omega-3 generally is higher in fishes that lives as deep in the sea as possible
Fish farms are not very deep because of costs, se they should have less omega-3 respect to wild fishes
