My gender is my concern, but you may use any pronoun to refer to me
There are many pros and cons. They are different things. While the main reason is that commercial solutions are selected to be as accessible as possible while piracy solutions require the user to make a lot more decisions (many of which can be made wrong), there area also valid reasons that spring directly from being different mediums. It is not hard to discover these reasons by simply trying it for a week.
Perhaps there have been times of famine where it kept people alive, but today and throughout most of human history, it’s simply killing people. Something like eight of the top ten causes of human death are consequences of diet. The leading cause of all human death goes away completely without consumption of a class of products that includes all dairy. Dairy is not healthy to consume, it is harmful.
What is your actual point? “Don’t worry about water consumption?”
The crops are literally standing in a field collecting water through their roots. Sometimes it comes from rain, but an ever-increasing share comes from irrigation. One way or another, that water has to be accounted for. Rainfall is a limited resource in agriculture, like any other source of water. Even entire rivers are often 100% consumed by agriculture.

I mean it is kind of questionable to have the only melaninated characters all belong to the same fantasy “race” that all share the same characteristics like being physically gifted at sports…
These are the guidelines that the human moderators are going to be using to make their judgements. They’re not binding law. Is it really so important that you need to drill down to such tedious minutia? Just be good and if you do something wrong while acting in good faith, I’m sure they’ll just tell you.
Grain lasts years. Starchy tubers (which we are uniquely evolved to consume and what was actually what supported the energy requirements of our large brain in pre-technological times) last all winter, or longer if you don’t dig them up. Salt preserves for years. So does pickling. Hell, even dogs are smart enough to preserve food by burying it in an anaerobic environment. A whole lot has to go wrong for the milk from an animal to be the margin by which a person survives, and by that point the animal has probably already been slaughtered. Exceptions like African bushmen who consume blood as a primary staple are quite rare.
