Honestly, the logic checks out, and that's why I have no problem with people eating dogs. I just wouldn't do it personally. Both pigs and dogs can make great pets, and presumably both can make great meals.
Yeah, I sorta think that too. You don’t eat your dog because it is your friend. There is the small matter of the coevolution shared by dogs and humans. I imagine that has a role in why we don’t typically eat them.
But also, pigs are really smart and charming. They do make good pets. I don’t think I could raise meat pigs. I worry that I would have a hard time eating them.
I'd imagine that it really just comes down to the taste. I've never eaten dog, or edible flowers so I can't attest to the flavor. But it would make sense that if one tasted better than the other, the less palatable option would find more value as something else (companion/helper for the dog and decoration for the flowers)
