Plants don't have a brain to process information, they are releasing these chemicals as an innate response. If you've ever spent time around cows or pigs you'd know there's little difference between their ability to feel and think from a dog.

All I've learned from this comment is that "you don't know what you don't know" and you're mad that others are being open-minded to things that are unknowns.

You can't factually assert animals and plants are different but "they just are" despite the answer being beyond the horizon of current science.

If you had said, "the lack of a brain as we understand it," maybe. But you are too certain about unknowable things for me to follow your reasoning.
