You're not wrong, but the idea that "plant based" is "safe" isn't right either. Plants can create all kinds of horribly toxic, carcinogenic compounds -- especially when burned or heated.
Wood smoke of all things is mildly carcinogenic and we cook our food with it.
If you had read my comment, you’d see that I never said nor insinuated that PLA was safe. I specified it differed from petroleum.
