It's not a byproduct. 80% of global soy is grown to feed animals.
I don't know where you got your stats, but according to the fao 17% of the weight of the global soy crop becomes oil, but a soybean is only about 20% oil in total. that means some 85% of the crop is pressed for oil. that byproduct being fed to livestock is a benefit.
I think I made by point and presented enough sources. I'm obviously not going to change your mind at this time.
have a nice day
